August 19th - 21st, 2005

After our successful blitzkrieg of the Chicago Basin 14ers the previous weekend, both Amy and I were within striking distance of completing all of Colorado’s 14,000-foot peaks. I was down to just two left, Mt. Wilson and El Diente, while Amy needed these two plus Wetterhorn Peak and Wilson Peak. We made an ambitious plan for the weekend where we would try to tackle all four peaks and hopefully finish our 14er quest together on El Diente. With an iron will and a little luck from the weather, we just might have a chance to pull it off.
