This was another big year for hiking.  I finished the Catskill 3500 challenge and started/finished the Lake George 12 challenge.  I also started on the ADK portion of the Fire Tower challenge, which will be my focus next year along with the LP 9, Saranac 6, and Tupper 3.  Plenty of non-high peak hiking to do.

The year end stats are as follows:

21 hikes

37 named mountains attempted, and 36 completed.

Total distance of 175.36 miles per GPS

Total time of 119.08 hours.

This translates to an average pace of 1.47 MPH.

For the rest of the winter I am planning to hit the high peaks out of the AMR lot and also start working from the north south on the peaks in the Catskills.  Then for the spring/summer/fall I will focus on fire tower and other challenges only to go back to the high peaks and Catskills the next winter.  Who knows, maybe I'll be able to break 200 miles again.
