trashbagging Big White Mountain - January 27 2024 An easy walk up from the top of the Big White Ski Resort, and a p1000 to boot. Might have nice views if you don't go in a total whiteout
hiking Diamond Head (Oahu) - January 19 2024 A small peak just southeast of Waikiki, easily accessible to the masses. Good for family, or in my case, as a nice little trail run objective on a "rest day"
hiking Konahuanui - January 19 2024 A steep and muddy ridge scramble/hike to the high point in the Koolau Range above Honolulu. An excellent example of the more intense/fun ridge hiking that Hawaii has to offer
hiking Mount Tantalus (Oahu) - January 18 2024 A short, easy hike not too far from Honolulu, with some pretty good views:effort. Also great to link up with some bigger peaks further into the north, as I did
trashbagging Kilohana (Haleakala area) - January 14 2024 A small high point on the NE ridge of Haleakala's crater, easy enough to tack on to a summit day
hiking Haleakala - January 14 2024 One of the easiest ultras you can bag, a scenic drive up to the high point of Maui with excellent sunrise/sunset views, stargazing, and some small peaks to claim along the way too!
trashbagging Pu'u Nianiau - January 14 2024 A small hill en-route to Haleakala, only for the most ardent of peakbaggers intent on grabbing all the little bumps they can
trashbagging Kuili - January 13 2024 A small cinder cone on the way to the Kona airport from the north, only a few minutes of a hike, but some nice views if you're nearby (or just want the peak for the sake of the peak)
hiking Mauna Loa - January 12 2024 The 2nd-highest mountain in Hawaii, just shy of Mauna Kea, and a lot more of an involved hike than it. A very satisfying summit, though
hiking Pu'u Haiwahine - January 11 2024 One of a group of 3 "consolation peaks" near the Mauna Kea Visitor's Centre you can bag if the road up is closed
hiking Kilohana (Mauna Kea area) - January 11 2024 One of a group of 3 "consolation peaks" near the Mauna Kea Visitor's Centre you can bag if the road up is closed
hiking Pu'u Kalepeamoa - January 11 2024 One of a group of 3 "consolation peaks" near the Mauna Kea Visitor's Centre you can bag if the road up is closed
ski mountaineering Alpaca Peak (Zupjok ⇾ Alpaca Traverse) - January 7 2024 The final peak in the traverse from Zupjok to Alpaca Peak. Some nice skiing off the top with good coverage, but a long slog to get there
ski mountaineering Llama Peak (Zupjok ⇾ Alpaca Traverse) - January 7 2024 The middle peak in the traverse from Zupjok to Alpaca Peak, with some nice, open ski terrain for your money
ski mountaineering Zupjok Peak (Zupjok ⇾ Alpaca Traverse) - January 7 2024 A fun gladed ski, more notable for being the first peak on the traverse to Alpaca Peak
hiking Spectrum Peak - January 3 2024 A less-visited peak accessed via Whistler Olympic Park, with some interesting lines, though i'd recommend waiting til later in the winter for optimal creek-frozen-ness
hiking Mount Woodside - December 30 2023 A trashy bushwhack which is 95% driving on a fairly easy forest road. Best combined with Mount Agassiz for some better value for your day, and a visit to Ramp Rock for a cool car shot
hiking Mount McRae - December 30 2023 A prominent but trail-less mountain in the Chehalis area, best saved for a day when you don't have better things to be doing
hiking Mount Crickmer - December 25 2023 A fairly standard hike to an p1000 peak. Hear there's good views, but I went in a deluge of a rainstorm, so none for me 😅
hiking Vedder Mountain (Vedder Peak) - December 20 2023 A quick hike doable before work, with some fun offroading and biking nearby
ski mountaineering Vantage Peak - December 17 2023 A fun ski with a little bit of extra spicy climbing at the end to make it a mini-mountaineering objective (at least in the winter)
ski mountaineering Iago Peak - December 8 2023 A smaller peak in the Coquihalla Summit recreation area. Some good ski runs off of it, but the approach was a bit tedious in all honesty.
hiking Mount Klaudt - December 3 2023 A short (but for us, quite painful due to the deep snow) snowshoe in the Sasquatch Mountain Resort area, which we linked with Cartmell Peak
hiking Cartmell Peak - December 3 2023 A short (but for us, quite painful due to the deep snow) snowshoe in the Sasquatch Mountain Resort area
ski mountaineering Amaretto and Pineau Peaks - November 25 2023 A fun traverse up and over Metal Dome in the Brandywine area. Could be linked all the way to Brandywine, but we were short on time
