Congrats to DavidDJohnson completing Clear Creek county yesterday. :rock:

Looks like we probably missed you on a visit to 8890 by a few hours.

Nice work David! I didn't know you were getting close on that list. Is this your first county list completion? Oh, just checked you also have Weld, home of that one awesome ranked peak. :) You are already at 200 in Larimer as well, awesome. Clear Creek is a lot of fun.

Thanks everyone! Brian, I greatly appreciate you helping me out with the crux of the county, Red Mountain. Mike, thanks for all the navigation on a lot of peaks there, and I'm glad you're better than me at changing tires.

Clear Creek is indeed a fun county, not too many private property issues. Lots and lots of real estate above treeline: nothing too crazy terrain-wise, but some amazing views and history in the county.

My first one was Bierstadt back in 2004. The last one was 11060 via Hefferman Gulch road, a nice mellow one to finish on. My favorite peak was probably The Citadel. Just incredible views from there.

Back to Larimer County peaks and 12ers! Probably will finish Prowers before then though.

Well done Dave! Clear Creek is a great list. And Larimer is well within your reach! Next summer?
