   Much Ado about Nothingburgers

   Of Mice and Mountaineers' final planned episode (at least as of its release) ties up as many loose ends as possible about mountains that most definitely did not need ropes but did seem to have me knotted up nevertheless, then leaves room for a future free of obsession over mountainous pursuits that are more about pure fun than filling out some checklist or another...ahh, who am I kidding? If this episode, like all its predecessors, is anything to go by, the spirit of compulsion will always be starving! Written version: https://www.14ers.com/php14ers/tripreport.php?trip=23282

Meeker, the nearly next-door neighbor of the Longs Peak, a.k.a. the first fourteener that tried to kill me. With such an intimidating shadow looming as I went after its little sibling, what could possibly go wrong?!
