Hi to All

This past Monday, Sept 8, 2014, Georg Feichtinger, accompanied

by his friend Larry Babcock hiked Mt Isolation, via the Rocky Branch,

Mt Isolation, and Davis Path trails. Out & back.



On this day, on the summit of Mount Isolation,

Georg completed his "GRID" "AFTER AGE 65".



Starting from Georg's 65th birthday , ( now age 73 )

Georg has visited all "48" New Hampshire 4000 footers

in every calendar month. 12 x 48 = 576.



Georg who completed his original grid ( GRID FINISHER #22 )

on Mt Monroe, on Sept 16, 2011 ( his 71st birthday ), is the First ( #1 )

known person to have started and completed a round of

the "GRID" after age 65.



I know you will all join me in a well deserved congratulations

to Georg.



Take Care
 
Yet another impressive accomplishment among the many posted on VFTT. Outstanding.
 
Gluckwunsche! Bravo! Felicitations! Congratulations, Georg! Wish I crossed your path more often. Besides being an amazing hiker for any age, you always have such a cheerful demeanor- maybe all that hiking? You are a treat to see on the trail.
