Memories
Memories From First Climb
My memories was the excitement that I got invited to climb with the AdAmAn Club! I remember looking up at the peak on New Year's Eve dreaming...."I'd like to be up there some day with the AdAmAn Club." Then it happened...year after year until I became a member.


Memories From First Member Year
I can't believe I was invited in to be the new member! This club has so few members with only one new member a year. What a honor to be one of the few AdAmAn members in our community!
Memories of Family
Favorite Memories from Climbing Fourteeners
Ted Lindeman....it's hard to believe he is gone. What an admirable man with such unique character traits. What a dear soul.

Memories of Favorite Gear
I have grown to love my Patagonia R-1 Hoodie. I could wear it everyday ...all day. In fact, I am wearing it right now as I write this Bio. I kid you NOT!
Memories of Worst Gear Failure
I climbed Phoenix Peak, a 13er near Creede, CO in the dead of winter (February.) We started at 5:00am and due to snowshoeing through deep snow, we didn't reach the summit until after 4pm as the sun was setting. On the way back in the cold, winter night, a snowshoe blew apart. With only cordelette to tie it back together, the sharp snowshoe edge kept cutting it. We didn't get back to the car until 1:30am that night making for a long 19 1/2 hour-long winter summit attempt. However, we WERE successful!
