Congratulations Luke! Another county done!

Glad I could join you for your last two peaks, I only wish it was light enough to see where we were!

Way to go, Luke!

BIG congrats, Luke. I've updated the County Completion List. Nice work on those particular peaks. Any chance of an insider email TR?

Luke,

Congrats on finishing boulder county. glad I could join you for it. Much more enjoyable experience this time than last time. "Mt. Slipknot" was alot of fun.

Good job Luke. With all those Larimer peaks as well you've really got your local area covered.

BC was a blast....even with the slight 11 month delay! :roll:

Pete, thanks for coming back for the finale. I wasn't sure you would want to attack the bog a second time. :twisted:

Mike -- first time was the charm for you! And you see in the dark just fine!

Joe and Jeremy -- thanks, and a super-classified top secret report might be purchased from my online store for a small fee... :please:

Tim -- 41 more peaks and I will have to relocate. Want to buy my condo??? :?:

All right Luke! Way to grab the mystery peaks. I imagine this trip has been on your mind for awhile after last year! Do you think you'll be able to finish up larimer this year? I too would be interested to hear some details about this last weekend.

Congrats on County Completion #3 (at least, those that have more than 1)

This is turning into a busy year. Expect we'll see several more completions this year, including the first of Park county.

Thanks Ryan and John,

The time had certainly come for me to get this list completed.

I see that Park County must soon go as well. Good luck with that one. These big lists are exhausting. Boulder County was just right.

Trip report is up on that other site (14erworld)

Congrats Luke on finishing Boulder County! Seems like it would be a daunting list with the private property issues and all, are there a lot of private land issues on the low peaks too?

And congrats to Pete and Mike too on the "mystery peaks"!

Thanks Mike,

Access issues are surprisingly not too bad on this list. I would say there are less than 10 real issues that require special moonlight or camoflage. Jeffco and Larimer are considerably worse overall in my opinion. There is usually a public way into most of these areas, though you do find a lot of "closed open space". Ask anytime for details.

Jeffco is by far the worst. Problem is you're still faced with a 110' pitch of 5.10+ even after going through all the property issues...
