What is the story behind the #sixpackofpeaks? 🏔⠀
⠀
The original Six Pack of Peaks was created as part of a training regimen for a through-hike of the John Muir Trail.⠀
⠀
Now others have joined the challenge to help them prepare for Mt Whitney and other big adventures!⠀
⠀
Many others find it a challenge enough of it’s own!⠀
⠀
Are you going to join the challenge? 🥾 📸: @82nelly82

•Campfires can cause lasting impacts to the backcountry. Use a lightweight stove for cooking and enjoy a candle lantern for light.⠀⁣⠀
⠀⁣⠀
•Where fires are permitted, use established fire rings, fire pans, or mound fires.⠀⁣⠀
⠀⁣⠀
•Keep fires small. Only use sticks from the ground that can be broken by hand.⠀⁣⠀
⠀⁣⠀
•Burn all wood and coals to ash, put out campfires completely, then scatter cool ashes.⁣⠀

Happy Thanksgiving!
We are incredibly thankful for all of you who are part of the Six-Pack of Peaks Challenge and the community that has grown around it. What began as a way to help us train for our thru-hike of the John Muir Trail back in 2010 has grown to seven challenges around the country and thousands of participants. And we all share the joy of being outdoors, exploring and climbing those mountains (both literal and figurative). I hope you have time to enjoy family, friends, and yes, some time outdoors this weekend.
I’m inspired by your adventures and look to seeing where your feet take you in the coming year.
