Let us know! Count anything that has a name! :D

Laurie and I managed to climb 35 peaks, walked 202 miles, and ascended 60,000 vertical feet! :eek:

(I know, it keeps disappearing, but I'm having trouble with the poll stuff! Ok, it's fixed now, but I had to add a dummy option, which got deleted! :confused: )

My tally for this winter (well, since Jan. 1... anything in December went on last year's tally...) was 25 peaks, 161 miles and 46,400 feet of elevation gain. :) - Ivy
Another person who loves spreadsheets! :D
 
I sweated and panted my up no less than 417 peaks this winter, most of which were in Delaware and Saskatchewan.

OK, I'm lying. I'll tally them up and report back to VFTT central later.
 
I climbed 26 named peaks in Florida and Texas. Used supplementary oxygen on 2 and was turned back on 6.

Oh yeah. Climbed 8 in NY, including 2 that I climbed multiple times (2 each). Does that count as 2 or 4.
 
15 total

Jefferson twice, not counting 1 failed attempt on Jefferson, and Mt. Mondadnock being the only one under 4,000 ft. Not too shabby! :D

It was fun. Can't it be winter just a little longer?? :cool:

Around 20 I think. But I only got two that are on my list. The others, I just climbed for fun.

What a wasted winter!

Just as I thought - lists are no fun! :D

Our 'for fun' was repeating peaks with each other that the other had never been too. Only about half of our peaks were ones we'd never climbed before. And some of the best views turned out to be from those peaks! :)
 
1

Just one peak, Jackson on January 4th number 37/48.

Other hikes were in the lower lands including trips to Three Ponds, Greeley Ponds, and a Black Pond to Franconia Falls bushwack.

Also the Boulder Loop off the Kanc, which is kind of a summit but not really. But there was little to no snow on the trial and very warm, so not really "winter" either although it was within the dates of winter.

It was my first winter out on snowshoes and crampons. Not quite ready in terms of gear to go up high. Next year!!

7 winter peaks... but two were Owl's Head and Isolation, so at least the long climbs are out of the way!
 
27 peaks. 20 of the ADK 46, 7 of the HH.
And one slide. :D

I also climbed Mount Royal about 50 times.
