Thanks to Bob Pickering for originally posting about these guys who were going after the SPS list fastest known time. They have completed their quest. If you haven't been following their journey you can go look through all of the old trip reports. I have to think outside of Nimal Purja doing all of the 8,000 meter peaks in one climbing season, and perhaps a few other Himalayan mountaineering accomplishments, doing the entire SPS peak list in 117/138 days has to be up there as an all-time mountaineering accomplishment (especially given they did all of these free solo from what I can tell). I hope they plan to put out a documentary of their experience. SPS FKT

For those in the LA area, Travis Soares (the second guy to complete the list this summer - and the faster of the 2 guys) is doing a presentation via AAC at Stronghold Climbing Gym on Sept 26 at 7pm.
