I became an avid hiker at the end of 2015 when a friend introduced me to San Jacinto Peak via the Marion Mountain Trail. Some of my favorite challenges and events to participate in are the SoCal Six Pack of Peaks Challenge, the 52 Hike Challenge, the San Bernardino Mountain Range's Nine Peak Challenge, the Fool's Traverse (11 peaks in the San Gabriel's) and the Climb for Heroes. Oh and the San Diego 100 Peak Challenge, which I completed earlier this year. I belong to a few hiking groups, Hike Beyond the Hills, Friends that Hike, Hike it O Community, and 3H (Hiking for Health and Happiness), just to name a few. I workout daily and I try to hike at least once a week. I'm always looking for hikers to join me, so eel free to reach out. I like easy hike days as well as extreme hike days. On a more personal note, I'm what most would refer to as an "old man". I'm 59 going on 30. Try to keep up! ;) ;) I'm a retired Marine of 21 years and I currently train Nuclear Security Officers. I am also a certified CPR/AED/First Aid Instructor and have completed the 10 day NOLS Wilderness First Responder Course.. less
