Colorado Mini “Death Hike”?

[Deckerp]

Wondering if a few people local to the front range would be interested in arranging and planning some sort of challenging off trail hike or series of hikes. Maybe some of you are familiar with the Exo guys and their Hunt Backcountry podcast and the Death Hike (as named by them) that they do every year. Their’s is a bit more extreme then what I have in mind at the moment. Maybe something in the 10-20mile range? a good excuse to train for fall and maybe meet some new friends.

Okay cool! I thought maybe a good way to go about it would be to arrange an initial hike that is not too crazy - like a 10mile route - that would give the folks involved a chance to meet and see how we all do and then from there plan a more challenging route? Personally I would like them to be primary off trail.

I am interested, though I can't say I would complete 10miles currently lol
If yall don't mind a former flatlander sucking air I'd give it a shot

You mean you don’t want to start by hiking up Pikes Peak?

This idea sounds positively awful.

10-20 miles, thread title is appropriate. Yep, I would die. See "2022 Fat-Off" thread....

Have fun!

 

[SharkDog]

I would be interested, too.

I’ll send ya my cell in a private message, if others do the same we could all connect in a group chat and figure out the details of the first hike?
