Additional Comments

        I love the outdoors and hiking and have found that County Highpointing is a great hobby for a goal-oriented individual. I am married to a wonderful wife and we have two amazing children. My family responsibilities keep me from making County Highpointing a bigger priority in my life, however I slowly but surely keep plugging along.

        I would like to complete the Pacific Northwest before I pass on in this life.
