SUMMARY:Winter Solstice
DESCRIPTION:December 21 marks the Winter Solstice—the shortest day and longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere. In other words: the sun clocks out early\, the shadows get dramatic\, and your motivation to get off the couch faces its toughest opponent yet. \nBeginning today\, hikes logged earn the Winter Hiker badge\, plus something new. Hikes logged and hiked on December 21 earn a Winter Solstice badge. \nRead the blog for more winter solstice hike ideas.

SUMMARY:Summer Solstice
DESCRIPTION:June 21st marks the solstice and the beginning of Summer. It’s the longest day of the year in terms of daylight hours. And it marks the start of peak adventure time (pun intended). \nSnow is beginning to melt out on mountains that have been covered all spring. The longer days mean you can sneak in a hike after work. And it’s the perfect time to tackle the Six-Pack of Peaks Challenge. \nIf you are just getting started\, here are a few proposed schedules to help you complete the challenge. \nSome of the challenges experience a change in weather and the possibility of snow in October. If you’re tackling a challenge in one of these areas\, plan to hike two of the peaks each month (July\, August and September). This gives you a buffer against shoulder season weather and flexibility to bag that final peak before the challenge ends. \nChallenges in some of the warmer zones run through the end of December. You can hike one peak a month through the end of the year and complete the challenge. And of course\, some of you will go bold and look to finish the challenge in six weeks\, or even six days. We’ve had a few challenges complete the challenge in even shorter times (<48 hours\, though I wouldn’t recommend it). \nThey key is to gather your hiking buddies\, sit down with your calendar and plan your hikes. Give yourself some flexibility so you can adjust when life gets in the way. \nAnd don’t forget to share those epic sunrise and sunset shots!
