John and Aly do Saguache County

Well, that was impressive. I was at an airport at GMT+2 watching more and more peaks get logged in the middle of the night back home. A record breaking 32 peaks in a day for John and Aly, followed by a finish of Saguache Co for John the next day. Congrats!

Thanks Teresa! John and I had a very full, fun and physically demanding day; it was perfect!

Congrats to John! Saguache is a rather large county to complete and by far one of my favorites. Good job!
I'm hoping to be the next saguache county completer if some of this snow could start melting on the high peaks. :brapper

32 ranked summits in a day. Wow. I once again find myself paraphrasing Babe Ruth: "Thirty-two, count 'em, Thirty-two! Let's see some son of a bitch match that."

I don't know if I've ever done 32 in a month

I've been sick all week and was going to spend the day catching up on work and drinking tea in my pajamas but reading your posts made me feel like such a lard-ass I called a friend and said, "Did you see what the Kirks did? We have to go outside!"

Thanks for the inspiration. You make a lot of people smile - and get a few of us off our butts - when you do crazy shit like this :-)

So much to climb - so little time!

Congratulations you two! This was fun to watch on Saturday.

I'm glad to see you "took it easy" on Sunday and climbed only four peaks.

Aly, only 17 left in Saguache County. That's like ... Half a day?
