Did my first three-summit day at Breckenridge. Hiked Peak 8 (twice), Peak 7, and Peak 6 summits, with ski descents from each. No huge feat on the mountaineering scale (I was starting from the top of the highest lifts) but still something I've been wanting to try for years.

In this stretch I hiked to Peak 8 from the top of Imperial Superchair, skied north into the saddle between Peaks 8 and 7, hiked up to the Peak 7 summit, then skied Peak 7 Bowl (maybe closer to the C.J.'s line; I was really just improvising and having fun so I didn't pay much attention to my route).
