14er in a kilt?

[Nighthawk]

Hope I don't appear too dense here but what, exactly, is a 14er? Done a lot of hiking but never heard of it

thanks

Laurie

It's a Coloradoan term. It means a mountain who's peak is at least 14,000 feet above sea level. Trees stop growing for lack of oxygen after about 12,000 feet- just for perspective.
