If you really want to start nitpicking it like that, I'll chime in with the always helpful: You didn't climb anything, it was a hike instead.Brendan Magee wrote:JChitwood wrote:Just asking, but how many of us climb from the trailhead every time? I did not double on that many, but did a few...Bel-Ox, Sunshine-Redbutt, Lincoln-Bross, Sunlight-Windom. Is the prevailing philosophy now to climb from the bottom every time?
I'll preface this by saying this is all really personal opinion, but for me, if I hike Grays and then cross the saddle to Torreys, I did not climb two 14ers. It was more like 1.25 14ers.
