Does anyone know who has the most summits of Whitney?

I know from the 2nd Edition of the Whitney Lore Book that Bob R. has at least 100 summits under his belt and judging by the high number of great trail reports lately the 100 summit# might be an old one.

ROCK ON MR.BOB R. !

I'll second it for Bob R!!

I've bumped into Bob R. twice on Whitney, the last time this past November. We spent several hours hiking together (he's got some great stories). At that time, he estimated that he had reached the summit more than 130 times (including two days in a row). He's an amazing guy and a true inspiration.
