Congratulations Heather on your amazing accomplishment! You're now among the rare few who've completed the list!!!

Ya done well, Chkn! Reeeeeeal well!! A bit legendary-arly!! I shed a tear thinking of the time we met on Culebra & thinking you had the ability to bite off my head (for fun), only to have you summit Dave and my 14er finisher & then scale up WHAM! for our Centennial finisher. Oh yeah, then introduce that fella Mike & we get up those PNW bumps Hood & Rainer. And then Mauna Kea, and Half Dome. We done some shiz, but YOU have done the kind of thing I get to brag to people about!!!
Yeah, you're pretty badass n awesome.
Your humble frien frrevers,

That's awesome! Congratulations!
I briefly met you on Savage and Lackawanna as you blew past me and my partner (on consecutive days...on the ascent and descent...
). You were kind enough to indulge me and let me get a picture of you.
Been a pleasure to follow your journey, without excessive boasting. Your accomplishments speak droves for what an amazing athlete you are! Thank you for being such a positive influence!
