It started on October 18th, 2013.
I made it to Brighton, threw everything into my backpack and began the hike.
November brought about the normal season for Utah.
November through April was easy, riding chairlifts, drinking beer and shredding with friends.
In May, I fulfilled a dream of mine and went to Mt.
May, month 8 of my challenge, was done.
In no time at all, I was back on the road for the Beartooth Summer Sessions in June.
A beautiful drive through Utah, Wyoming, and even Yellowstone National Park made the time fly.
After Yellowstone, my GPS went out at the beginning of the Beartooth Pass.
Tensions were high and gas was running low.

Beartooth was an awesome experience with a vibe that has never been seen before.
Its an event that you should definitely check out.
Naturally this meant that I had to get some more turns in.
After heading up the service road for only about 15 minutes, a pickup truck pulled up behind me.
They even gave me a ride up part of the way in the back of their truck.
Two hours after getting out of the back of the truck, I was standing on top of Baldy.
Month 9 was done.
July brought me back to Alta, though in a much less dramatic way than June.
It was a short hike, but none the less beautiful.
Month 10 was short and sweet.
August brought about the most physically taxing turns of the Challenge.
It brought me to Mt.
Timpanogos in Lehi, Utah.
As the sun came up I was struck with the beauty of the mountains.
It took about 3 hours or so before I made my way to the snow.
Timpanogos is 11,000 vertical and the snow was near the summit.
close to 40 times.
September and finally October were a little different.

If its something you want to do, make it happen.
