Episode 16: Hiking My 1st 14er

Since Gabrielle doesn't want to fry to death in this Texas heat & just got back from traipsing all over Colorado, we're doing a Colorado mini series! Today is the first of this series where Jon & Gabrielle take a trip down memory lane & recount the tale of Gabrielle's first 14er. If you want to hear about Gabrielle running a 40k obstacle course race 2 days prior to trying to ascend her first 14er, lightning fatalities in Colorado, flat lander considerations for hiking at elevation, shitting (or not) above treeline, stay tuned! Correction: it turns out that Jon was very wrong about how many people have died in Colorado from lightning strikes. 1 person died in 2024 from lightning strike. Here’s the shitty news - more people in Texas have died from lightning strikes since 2006-2023 than people in Texas. See more at this article: Colorado has the third-most lightning deaths in the country. Here’s how to stay safe.
