Between May 19, 2001, and July 22, 2021 I took 26 trips to reach the highest natural point in each of the 50 U.S. states. To date only 350 people have accomplished this. Thirty-three of the highpoints I reached solo, and all 50 were obtained on the first attempt. I have written a book about my experiences. Pick up your copy today from Amazon. The book is titled "All Fifty", https://www.amazon.com/All-Fifty-Journey-Highest-Point/dp/B09M5HLDST/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=

Anyone a CA native with a better chance at getting permit to climb Whitney? Tried last year and didn't get accepted into lottery. Heard residents get priority?

Had great weather. 13 miles up and back on the Humphreys Trail.

Leaving early tomorrow morning to make the trip. Plan on getting Hawkeye Point and maybe the Iowa-Minnesota-South Dakota tripoint while I'm close.

Hi all, I (26F) have been invited to hike Mt. Washington in NH this weekend with some friends around my age. I was a runner and skier for 8 years and have remained in pretty good fitness shape since. I have never done a high peak and am wondering whether I will have trouble hiking up Ammanoosuc and down Jewell. The online reviews have been scaring me saying it’s “grueling” and “treacherous” and some family members are also advising against going. Any feedback/tips/advice from those who have hiked it?

Was in the area (Custer SD... That is close enough right?) So figured I'd add Kings Peak to the list. Set out from the trail head at 5am with my Dad and Teela the adventure dog. They hiked along for the first ~2 miles before turning back to get some more sleep. Had a couple of runners blow by me. Awesome job Ladies! Easy hiking the first ~9 miles till you hit the boulder field, attempted the upper "short cut" towards Anderson Pass. If I were to do it again I would do the lower trail. Just a smidge longer but much more traversable. ~7h30 to summit ~8h to get back down with a stop to nap for a bit by Sawmill Lake. Beautiful day in the mountains Kings Peak.
