Re: Someone HAS to improve this FKT record
I think everyone here just wants to know his plan for Sunlight 
But hey, as long as he's having fun, that's pretty rad.
Also, what's up with those numbers? I've seen justification for lots of different numbers in the 50's, but never 56 or 59. What's 59? North Massive?

Could be North Massive. Seems like Andrew Hamilton included it in one of his (many) FKT's (not his overall CO 14ers support record).Choss Plate wrote: ↑Fri Jul 18, 2025 1:19 pm I think everyone here just wants to know his plan for Sunlight

Re: Someone HAS to improve this FKT record
Has he done Sunlight yet? As I recall, that hole sneak through the ridge isn't wide enough for a normal hula hoop. He might have to get creative.

For those that don't know, Billy Kresge died in a car accident in April,2019 at 26 years old. I knew him casually ,but I think he wouldn't mind if someone broke the record.

Re: Someone HAS to improve this FKT record
Oh, that's very sad. I'm sorry, I missed the decade old date on that article (or at quick glance only saw the '5' on the end of the date) and assumed this was an ongoing attempt.
Since I now see he finished, out of curiosity, did he actually hoop on the true summit block of Sunlight? How about Snowmass? Gotta know the style set for the FKT.
