We Finished the Grid!

 We finished the Grid on June 2, 2021!

All hikes can be found here - each month has the appropriate link attached to it. Many thanks to John Myers, Jen Adams, and Natalie Stahl for going with us, and many thanks to Ed Hawkins for meeting us at the parking lot to give us our patches.

More later this summer! For now, a break.

Zealand and the Bonds

Our hike was beautiful today! The conditions were perfect and made this long hike feel better than it would have if we had to wear snowshoes or break trail. We are still very sore, though :)

I’m back at it again! I took a break for a couple months because I Gridded out January and February last year, but I’m back to hiking every week. Mom, Sage, and I hiked Madison and Adams today.

December 2020 Hikes

Union of Concerned Scientists is an organization that fights for climate justice and conducts climate change research. They have articles on climate change, COVID-19, politics, and more. Check out their website!

Here are my December hikes! I have now gridded out the months July - February, so I will not be posting Grid peaks again until March. I still need 4K hikes during March, April, May, and June.

Sage still needs January and February Grid peaks though, so you can follow her progress on her blog. I will be a support person for her over the next couple of months, providing car spots when needed and cheering her on. 



 Zealand and the Bonds

12/22/2020

It was misty, windy, and cold. We started the hike before sunrise and ended after sundown. Quite an adventurous day! The hike was 21.7 miles including a 3.7-mile road walk after hiking down to the Zealand trailhead. Happy 50th birthday to Mom!!!🎉
