Red Mountain has undergone more deletion since my first visit. The current HP is 260' ENE from where I measured it in 2006. It actually seemed safer now that the HP isn't on an overhanging precipice. Just as nasty of a grunt getting up there as I remembered. Good job AK!

Nice job Alyson, that is a fun county. I hope I don't have to repeat Red Mtn because the top has moved!

Congrats Aly. As Luke implied the dominoes could/should start falling quickly now.

Wilbur took some liberties on the summit of Red, tiptoeing along the narrow, peeling slab on the wrong side of of the bergschrund.

Thanks everyone! Clear Creek County was fun and one of the bigger counties I've completed. A special thanks to my husband for repeating Red. That peak sucks! Dave, I can't imagine how that peak went with Wilbur. Up next, hopefully Gilpin this summer and making a bigger dent in Park and Fremont this fall/winter.
