How to unlock the Peak Jumper achievement in Microsoft Solitaire Collection - Definitive Guide

As the description says, you need to complete a board in TriPeaks where the last three cards removed from the board are the three peaks of each pyramid.
It is almost a guarantee that this will happen at some point along the way of clearing 100 boards for the "Extreme Altitude" achievement. As of my being halfway done with that achievement, I've had this happen to me at least 4 times. It may sound somewhat luck-based, and technically it is, but you shouldn't have to worry about it happening.
If you want to force it, when playing a game of TriPeaks you'll be asked if you want a wild card or an extra deal (you'll get this before every game if you upgrade to Premium, but only every few games if you don't). Always choose the wild card; the extra deal is pointless. With the wild card, you can save it, and purposely leave the peak of each pyramid until last, and in case the cards don't align to eliminate all three peaks, you've got the wild card to remove a card. If you use the wild card and it doesn't work out, you can always Undo to back before you used the wild and save it for the next deal and try again.
