Impressive!
Now I have some updating to do.

Benwolf and Alan: Andrew Lock isn't number 15 "in the club". He's number 18.

Yes, he is number 18. I corrected my site - Thanks.

If you don't know Andrew, he is an incredibly nice person - huge heart, gentle and very driven. He climbs for the love of it, not checking off a list. I was lucky to climb with him so as to make these comments. Congratulations to Andrew for being the first Ausie to get all 14.
