On August 30th, 2019, Teresa Gergen became the first person to reach all ranked peaks over 13,000 feet in all U.S. States except Alaska, on Palisade Crest in California. That's 846 peaks. Many of these peaks, especially in Wyoming and California, are very difficult and remote. She overcame a lot of obstacles in this quest, most notably when she suffered a broken leg in 2010 while descending Mt. Sacagawea in the Wind Rivers.
Congratulations Teresa - you deserve to be first!
