30 Is a Nice Round Number

7 Jan

Extreme cold, frostnip, wind, and 2+ feet of new snow – week two of my vacation was certainly tough. Nonetheless, I refused to let the conditions hold me back. Heading into my winter hiking extravaganza, I didn’t have any lofty goals in mind. Therefore, I was pleasantly surprised to have…

Covered: 171.1 miles in distance
Gained: 55,550 vertical feet in elevation
Stood Atop: 30 4,000 footers

  • 12/28 – Moriah
  • 12/29 – Tecumseh
  • 12/30 – Zealand
  • 12/31 – North Twin, South Twin, and Galehead
  • 1/1 – Liberty and Flume
  • 1/2 – Tom, Field, and Willey
  • 1/3 – Cannon
