13.5 miles of hiking • 3500' elevation gain •
On Sunday, May 26, 2013, I was the first person to climb Mt. Washington. Let the historical magnitude of that sink in for a minute. Go ahead, I'll wait.
After that monumental achievement, I also became the first person to become lost on Mt. Washington on May 26, 2013. The intent was to climb another peak on the ridge, but I wandered around in the snow for a mile or two and wound up popping out on the Great Wall, which is neither "great" nor a "wall".
