Looking forward to seeing your finisher thread, John.
Finisher thread challenge accepted. I may have to treat it like Everest, 1 month and 4 base camps.
At this point that's what it is going to take for me to get Jagged.

Congrats Phill! I'm late on this one.

Maybe I should put down my garden rake, hoe and clippers today. Start training for next year?
Only one left for me. Mt Meeker. Lazy of me not to get er done.
Meeker is it? Yes, get out there and get it done before the season's over!

Hey Jon, your old 4Runner got me to Beartown without a problem! Love that eastern Weminuche!

Jagged was the biggest hurdle for me. Thankfully, I got a great mentor and lead climber to make that happen or I'd be sitting at 99.

Glad the old 4Runner is living on and still in the mountains!
