Well, if one bags a peak, one is not just all talk.

Chuffer – (noun) One who could be described as being all talk and no action and in some cases the talk is merely a whisper.

Whats funny, is I read the title and immediately thought. This kid is in his early 20's and lives in Colorado, probably just sent his first 5.12

There is nothing in reality that I can offer that could even possibly change the OP mind on this, which is an entirely accurate statement.

Hey, I'm a nice guy. But you can think what you would like. Or try repeating some of the stuff I've done.

Marmots are cute enough to warrant rehabilitation.

At least peak baggers aren't complaining about culturally insensitive climbing holds.

Your mind doesn't need to be changed; it's nice and compact right now.

Are you calling Dr. Spaceman a chuffer?

Does the term “peakbagger” apply if you bag *all* the peaks?  Well done Long Ranger.

Peak-enthusiast will also work.

"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves."

Or stay in your spurt wankin' ghetto choking on dust, rap and spray?

Your choice.

More likely, he probably just started leading 5.8 sport and wants to shame the front rangers that hike Greys and Evans.

Nice Long Ranger!

Only a chuffer who has never "bagged" a peak would need their mind changed.

As long as people are having fun outside who the hell cares?

If you are referring to people who drive up Mount Evans or Pikes Peak, take a summit photo, and drive back down, you are right.

Peakbagging is as close to alpinism as it gets in the states. Therefore, peakbaggers are the alpinists of America. Seems pretty cool to me, and much more badass than bouldering or sport cragging

I'd throw in $50 to see the OP do the Sangre de Cristo traverse per Long Ranger
