Here’s a responsive CSS solution, based on adding a large padding and an equally large negative margin to each column, then wrapping the entire row in in a class with overflow hidden.
.col{
margin-bottom: -99999px;
padding-bottom: 99999px;
background-color:#ffc;
}
.col-wrap{
overflow: hidden;
}

In response to a question, here’s a variation if you need equal height wells or equal height columns with rounded corners: http://jsfiddle.net/panchroma/4Pyhj/

In response to a question, here’s the same technique in Bootstrap 3, same principle, just update the class names in the Bootstap grid: http://jsfiddle.net/panchroma/bj4ys/embedded/result/
