It depends. Are you looking to work your way up to longer, harder hikes? If so, I’d suggest Mount Umunhum next.

Hi Sonia! I took 75 finisher packets to the post office two hours ago. I’m working my way through them.

And yours was one of them! 😃

No, as soon as you sign up for the challenge, you can start logging hikes (no need to wait for the hiker tag or welcome packet).

Hi! Yes you can. If you are looking for the Bay Area challenge (formerly known as the NorCal challenge), start with the 2023 finishers here: https://socialhiker.net/six-pack-peaks-challenge/san-francisco-bay-area/2023-finishers/

I can't really get more specific than in my response yesterday, where I said “…I’m sending welcome packets out to the Legacy Challengers first, then by date registered. I have a few hundred to pack and ship, so it will likely run into next week before I can catch up.
I have the pins, the stickers, etc. and most of the “ingredients”. When your welcome packet ships, you’ll get an automated email with a tracking link so you can check the delivery progress.
I’ll post updates here in the forum.”
The issue is that items like carabiners, shipping materials and other key items keep getting delayed, so I cannot rely on the dates they give me. See the UPS screenshot for a case in point.

Hi Joshua, Nicolas and others waiting patiently for their welcome packets.
Today I have printed the remaining finisher certificates for the 2023 NorCal and Bay Area challenges. According to UPS, mailing tubes will arrive by 9pm tonight, so they can be shipped tomorrow.

Hi Vishal,
We fixed the issue with the confirmation emails. It doesn't “retroactively” send emails, but rest assured, you are all set. – Jeff

Hi Abren! Welcome to the challenge. The welcome packets will ship as soon as we receive our enamel pins (hopefully sometime next week). Note that you do not need to wait for the welcome packet to start your challenge. You can log hikes as early as January 1st.

Hi Monique,
Welcome packets have not been mailed yet. We are waiting on one more “ingredient” that has shipped but we have not received yet. I'm hopeful that we'll get it next week and can start mailing out the welcome packets.
Note that you do not need to wait for the welcome packet to start the challenge or log your hikes.
Also note that the 2024 challenges will show up on your dashboard by January 1st, the official start date.

I just sent out an email update on the welcome packets this afternoon. Check your inbox. 🙂

Hi Tanessa! I just setup David's account today. He should get an email with instructions on setting his password. Note that the challenge begins January 1st, and the dashboards (both on the web and in the app) will “go live” later this month. You both have access now to the 2024 SoCal Six-Pack of Peaks Challenge group.

Hi Ninfa!
You were automatically added to the 2024 San Diego Challenge group. You can view this if you go to “My Groups” on the website or via the app.
The “log a hike” and other functions on the dashboard (both on the app and the website) will automagically appear later this month, before the challenge starts on January 1st.

Hi Jeff. I checked on this and your welcome packets were not sent. You should've received yours by now. It looks like there was a number of people who did not get their Arizona Winter welcome packet, but should have by now. I will check into this on Thursday morning and get back to you via email.
