About 17, but 4 were bivouac's- no tent. I'm getting too old for this!

^^Haha^^ I'm with SteveA. Red Rocks trips are in a cushy Casino bed now. Last trip down the camping was windy, crowded and $15 a night, whereas the bed option was warm, comfortable and $22 a night. I try and find a buddy with a home on longer climbing trips. With that, I'm just under 40 days for the year.

It would be cool to see Todd Gordon put up a pic of the same lad on the same boulder as that JT pic he posted back in 2007. That boys probably driving by now.

A lot. Really a lot.
By far the worst one was an uber windy night in Indian Creek which blew tons of dust into my tent. My hair, my nose, my ears

^^^ That is why I only sleep in 4 season tents now. Woke up covered in dust a few too many times.

^^^^. Yup. Shortly after I bought a car camping tent that encloses. I can even stand up in it.
Made no sense to car camp in my backpacking tent. Duh. Blonde or senile. Both.
