On the recordNovember 28, 2017
Mr. Speaker, I yield myself such time as I may consume. H.R. 2768 names two peaks in the Uncompahgre National Forest in Colorado after Charlie Fowler and Christine Boskoff. Fowler and Boskoff were world-class rock climbers whose accomplishments left enduring legacies on the sport. Sadly, in 2016, the two set out to climb a mountain in a remote part of China near the Tibetan border and never returned. This bill and the renaming of the peaks is a fitting tribute and I support its adoption. Mr. Speaker, I yield back the balance of my time.
