HEATHER! So stoked and happy for you finishing these ranked ones up. I have loved getting to spend time with you on some really fun adventures around CO (and beyond) but our trip to the Wemi last year will forever hold a special place in my heart. So much fun! I know you don't read the forums but hopefully you check out this thread eventually.

P.S. the chicken costume looks perfect for playing in the chawss.

My first hike with Heather was in Aug 2016 as we did the Father Dyer to Helen traverse. Since then, we have had many adventures over the years! We both moved here from the KC area, so we also share a love for the hated KC Chiefs and have watched many games together. The 13er project is a daunting challenge that takes a lot of grit and determination to overcome numerous challenges that are faced. Heather was just getting started when I met her, so we only did a handful of 13ers together. She tells me she has no interest in 12ers, but maybe I can suck her into at least a top 10 list. :-D Congrats on an outstanding accomplishment, Heather! Glad I could join the celebration on Grizzly.

That’s fantastic Heather! What an accomplishment! Big congrats! Richard
The summit is a source of power. The long view gives one knowledge and time to prepare. The summit, by virtue of the dizzying exposure, leaves one vulnerable. A bit of confidence and a dash of humility is all we get for our work. Yet to share these moments with friends is to be human. C. Anker
