Our Goal for the day is the west face of Snowmass, pictured here to the left taken the night before on the slog into camp.
Matt and Gerlinde on the hot slog in on Monday afternoon.
Drying out the gear at camp, and going to bed rather early for a nice 2 am wake up call.
The western Elks are really a cool part of the range. Overall, not as high as the rest, but rather beautiful.
Siberia standing tall in the early morning light.
Matt Kamper setting the booter past Capitol peak to the top of his last 14er to ski.
Just about to the top of the ridge as the jets pass on by.
Almost there. Matt hasn't let me break a step of trail the entire time.
Tippy top of Snowmass. Beautiful day to boot.
How would a last 14er be without a quick nip of scotch at 8:45 AM?
Matt dropping in on the end of the list. It was a pleasure to share it with him.
Capitol in his past, Matt skis right on by.
Back to the valley.
Back at the cars, my feet were wrecked.
Celebration with Lou Dawson, Matt, Shane, Gerlinde, Gary and myself at no other place than whitehouse pizza.
Congrats Matt on completing the old list!

I was all smiles and high fives until I saw the shot of your foot. Now I am speechless and slightly disturbed. LOL!
Great job.

Great pics, Jordan. Looks like a stellar day up there and so cool you joined Matt for his finale. Congrats again, Matt! Jordan, it sort of seems like forever ago we climbed/skied Snowmass for your finale and ate at Whitehouse. Good times, man.

Nice work Jordan; way to help out a friend. I see Treasure Mountain lurking in the background of three of your photos; 4700′ vert from summit to creek.
See you at the Onion
