It all started about five years ago...
School was out for the summer, the weather was gorgeous, and what better way to enjoy freedom from school than a hike in New Hampshire's White Mountain National Forest? The only problem was I was terribly out of shape, and the Falling Waters Trail on the Lincoln-Lafayette loop was relentless. While I will spare the details, I could barely walk for the better part of a week afterwards. However, this experience did not deter me from ever hiking again. In fact, it (no pun intended) peaked my interest in taking better care of myself, and what better way than to hike more.
Since that day, I have hiked a handful more 4000' mountains. Just a few weeks ago, I decided that in my life time I WILL hike the Northeast 115, 115 of the highest peaks in the the states of New York, Vermont, New Hampshire, and Maine. All but four of these mountains are 4000' above sea level. This blog follows the ups and the downs of my adventures through the Northeast 115.
