Notes by Gerry Roach
  1. Our climbs in Colorado’s Indian Peaks Region:
    Gerry Roach’s totals:
        201 ascents; 54/57 hard ranked; 3/4 soft ranked; 103/109 overall
    Jennifer Roach’s totals:
        165 ascents; 46/57 ranked; 2/4 soft ranked; 75/109 overall
    Gerry and Jennifer’s combined total: 366 ascents
    As of 3/17/08

  2. This list’s scope is all summits over 10,000 feet elevation in the greater Indian Peaks Wilderness region. The list’s area is bounded by the northern Indian Peaks Wilderness boundary and the 10,000-foot contour line to the east, south and west of the wilderness. I have listed three peaks that are just out of this area. Mount Adams is just north of the wilderness, but is commonly climbed from the Roaring Fork in the wilderness, so I include it on this list. Two peaks, “Strawberry Pk” and “Granby Pk,” have connecting saddles that are below 10,000 feet, but they are ranked summits with parents in the list area, so I include them for completeness. Peaks west of Berthoud Pass are not included.

  3. This list covers 109 summits, of which 57 are hard ranked and 4 are soft ranked.
