San Luis. Naturally I did most of the easier and nearer peaks first, then I eventually realized I wanted to save an easy peak for last rather than a difficult one so I could have friends join.
It would be cool if your finisher could be displayed in your profile like your first peak in order to see the statistics. I'm guessing anything in the Tenmile/Mosquito range rarely shares in the glory of being someone's finisher.

Re: What was your 14er finisher?
Conundrum. Since I did the first two 14ers with my then girlfriend 20 years before I talked her into doing the finisher with me. She plowed though her remaining 14ers earlier that summer so it would be her finisher too. I’ve often wondered if we were the only ones who finished on the controversial Conundrum. When all the LiDAR measurements were coming out I was hoping the summit would be about 20’ higher and the saddle 20’ lower so it could gain the coveted ranked status. Alas it was not to be. Counting ranked peaks only my finisher was Windom.

Mt. Lindsey when it was legal in Oct 2019. I'm curious how newer hikers who haven't summited Lindsey are handling the "finisher" part of it? Are they omitting this from the list for now?
