May Resolution Recap: Summiting the Highest Peak in Arizona



I would never use the word "athletic" to describe myself. I don't work out. I don't play sports. Not me.

But I do like nature a lot. And, like I mentioned in my February RR, exercise is a means to an end for me--a way to experience nature.

I haven't been exercising regularly, but I have been practicing harder and harder hikes so that I can push myself. And what's the hardest one nearby? Mt. Humphreys. It's 12,633 feet tall--the tallest peak in Arizona

What Made it Difficult
Snow. I was prepared for high altitudes, I was prepared with enough food and water, but I was NOT prepared for this much snow. Watch my vlog below to see what I mean:


What I Learned
I can do anything. 


Now What?
Maybe this.
