Congrats Becca! I have always enjoyed reading your insightful trail reports.

 

[JCarter]

Awesome job. Congratulations.

I'm surprised Coppermine Trail was your last, I thought most redliners finished on some obscure spur in the middle of nowhere.

 

[Maineman]

Yay! Congratulations!

The sport is evolving. We are getting smarter. Almost sentient.

Congrats, Becca!

Brava! A worthy obsession, and a great way to experience the best of NH en masse.

Did she do some on mtn bike?

Did she do some on mtn bike?

I'm guessing no, since that doesn't count. Skiing does though.

 

[Damselfly]

Becca, congratulations! Quite a feat!!

Congratulations to Becca Munroe! Would like to know her favorite / least-favorite trails, total miles hiked, total time and other arcane details.

My goal is to be a finisher within the first 100. Another decade should do it ...

Nice job, Bec.

 

[Becca M]

Thanks all!!!! I wasn't going to do it but it was too fun to stop!!!!!

I walked/jogged/skied all trails per the official rules but did use a mtn bike for bikespotting. I have *also* mtn biked AND skied some of the trails.

Not sure about favorite/least favorite, but, for hiking trails Thoreau Falls Trail is *a* favorite and Landing Camp Trail is a *least* favorite!!!! Probably took about 4 years once I focused (I began about a year before I finished the grid). Total miles - not sure but probably way more than the ~1400 or so miles listed as I had to go back in for a lot of shelter spurs/etc!!!

Actually, my favorite trail of all time isn't even on the current list, but, it is in the old guides before the Southern NH Trail guide trials were split off: Alexandria Ski Trail on Mt Cardigan - most fun to snowboard!!!!
