Congratulations Ted Mahon — All 14ers Skied, Completed with Descent of Capitol Peak

April 18, 2008 Media, Outdoor Athlete

I was the 3rd person to ski all of Colorado’s 14ers, finishing back in 2008. It was of interest to the ski media, and it was Lou Dawson’s Wild Snow that I was happiest to talk with about it. The person behind that website, Lou Dawson, was the first person to ski those same mountains more than a decade earlier. Here’s what he said:

Ted Mahon's ski route on Capitol Peak, indicated in red.
The route on Capitol Peak, indicated in red.

“I just got of the phone with Ted Mahon of Aspen. He’s been working on skiing all 54 Colorado 14ers, and completed his quest yesterday with an 18 hour epic on Capitol Peak. He and Al Beyer found a new ski route down the south and west sides of the peak. More info here ASAP. Meanwhile, great job Ted and Al! (And who would have known, we now have three summit ski routes off Capitol Peak, the mountain that just several decades ago most people thought was completely unskiable.)“
