I love my MFP friends and I am looking to find ones that also have my biggest interest which is hiking/Climbing/Scrambling!
I am mostly in need big time of motivation but with my Rainier goal coming up in one year and my few climbs at the end of the summer I really need to get my motivation back, get on track and kick some butts! If you think you need a friend like me please add me! haha that sounded cheesy! :tongue:

    Wanting to section hike the Appalachian Trail starting next summer. Bucket list includes hiking and photographing Yosemite backcountry and maybe some trails in the Rockies and Grand Canyon.

    I live at sea level, so getting ready is a BIG concern. My husband and youngest son did a trail in Tennessee a couple of weeks ago that was 1,000 ft vertical to 400 yds of trail.

    I agree sometimes training for things like that are quite challenging.
    I mean the rockies are still close by for me. I am hoping to do a great one called Vision Quest Ridge this weekend!
    All the places you mentioned above are all so gorgeous!

    What a terrific goal! With that kind of "carrot" (and the other kind as well), you'll reach it! :)

    Hi there!

    I love to hike and climb. My boyfriend and I live south of Munich, Germany right in the foothills of the Alps so we're super close to a lot of really great hiking and climbing. We're planning a couple 4000m peaks this summer, including hopefully either the Mont Blanc or the Matterhorn.

    I was looking at doing that one next time I am in that area. Looks amazing minus the wait up top!
