As soon as Dinner at 7:00 PM on November 14. A Zoom I saw that list of Colorado’s ranked 14,000-foot mountains, I knew I meeting link will be sent out prior to the dinner. wanted to make that list my goal. So, I set out to climb the 58 ranked Please register at cmc.org. peaks on that list. I was able to accomplish my new goal pretty quickly even though climbing these high peaks isn’t easy. It took me about 2½ years to do it. What I learned about this peak bagging experience was it had become a motivation to stay healthy and active. If I was going to climb a 14er on the weekend, I needed to get out of the office and workout during the week. So hiking, biking, jogging, and climbing low peaks mid-week became my lifestyle. During my peak bagging adventures of “the 14ers” that are ranked, I learned that there are 17 more peaks that are over 14,000 feet as well. Those are listed in Gerry Roaches’ 14er book in the back. I decided that I wanted to be able to say, “I’ve climbed ALL of the 14ers” without any caveats. So, I decided to go after these peaks as well.
