As someone who has done a few summer 14ers, the effort required to do this is on a whole different level of insanity. Its borderline incomprehensible.

253k vertical feet gain/loss in 72 winter days...on terrain that would make every single person here shit themselves.

Capitol peak alone has a knifes edge with a 2,000 foot drop on either side. Nine people have died in the last 20 years.

His view on the ascent:

But coming down:

And the only guy to ever do it before was there with him on the tougher peaks towards the end to help him along and beat his own record. Just amazing good feels all around.
meh- all that white I can see why you like it up there so much
