Fantastic!
It's early season for many of the peaks — especially with the snow we've had the past week — but Sutton is a great starting point.
I've hiked it in February and March. My best advice? Shoot for an early start. Temperatures drop below freezing overnight and everything solidifies. If it's going to be at or below freezing, that keeps the mud from thawing (much).
And be sure to stop at Tiger Town Brewing in nearby Mitchell. They have great food and even (sometimes) a Sutton Mountain IPA to celebrate.
What are your other dates? I'm based in Bend and will be hiking the Central Oregon challenge as well. If our schedules align and you'd like company, maybe we can hike together.

Yes, they are the exception to the calendar year rule. For all the other challenges, you technically have from January 1 to December 31 of a calendar year to complete them. I say “technically” because many of the trails are difficult to complete in the winter, where they are no longer hikes, but winter mountaineering excursions. Plus some of the roads to the trailheads close down, making it more of a summer endeavor for most people.

Hi Tanya!
We implemented both the mileage tracker (which is based on what you enter when you log a hike, and is optional) and the peak counter in 2023. Hike logs before that would not be counted, but I've updated your peak count. Let me know what the mileage should be, and I can update that as well.

Yes and it's live. (Just catching up with discussions).

LOVE THIS! For many years I had a PCT thru-hike on my life-list, but it dropped off in 2021. It is a big commitment to take off for five months. Doing it in sections feels much more doable, and something I need to revisit. Keep us posted! I'm in Bend, so let me know if we can help with any resupply or town rides.

I had to look up the West Highland Way. Sounds spectacular! My wife and I hiked the Coast to Coast Walk across England in 2023 and loved the experience.
Are you going with a group?
