Crispo Peak-Leave No Stragglers

Only Sue, John and Dennis, as far as I know.

Thats what I have. I'd started an archive of the ADK100 and contained there is a working list of all the completers and those who are close.
I've been corresponding with bushwhacker all over the NE and found only a few that were unknown to me.
While I'm sure that are others, so far I'm fairly convinced that there are not as many completers of the ADK100 as commonly thought.

Whats been the real challenge, though, is digging up the New Englanders who've come to the Adirondacks. There are some like Dennis Crispo who've completed them, and Tom Sawyer who's closing in on the winter ones, but I'd hoped to find more out-of-state than already identified.
If I can ever make "landfall" with my old buddy, Gene Daniell, I'm hoping he'll be a resource I can rely on to fill in some blanks.

Thank you,

If I recall correctly, Saddleback 2998' is still listed at that elevation on the new quad map. While I've eye-balled that peak for some time now, I still don't have it as yet. Papa Bear climbed it. I saw a report awhile back that he posted. I believe it made his New England "50 finest" list(?).

Yes I climbed it with Spencer early last Spring. Roy climbed it years ago and just this year I think Oncoman and Nate climbed it. Whom did I miss? So what's holding you back Dannis

?

Then there's Moxie. Not as near to the magical 3K category, but a d*mn nice peak, whith a great view no less (Just don't look behind you at the anti-view).
