Kevin makes 150 jumps in one day for charity. My goal for the whole summer is 150!
blog.firstascent.comWatch three ground breaking international kayaking expeditions unfold in search of a First Descent and follow an elite group of boaters as they embark on a dramatic journey deep in Mexico’s remote Sierra Occidental Mountains. The team attempts–for the first time–the Rio Piaxtla, which runs through the deepest canyon in North America. In India, the team goes on an epic 50 day expedition in search of uncharted whitewater in the steepest portion of the Himalayas, and the grand finale is a search of the largest kayak-able waterfalls on Earth in Mato Grosso, Brazil.
Until a few weeks ago, only 6 skiers had ever managed to ascend and descend all 54 of Colorado’s massive “14ers” — mountain peaks over 14,000 feet. Thanks to the dedication of Jarrett Luttrell, snowboarding has been added to the list. With his descent of Keplinger’s on Longs Peak, Jarrett became the first snowboarder to ride all 54 14ers, setting a new standard in ride-mountaineering and helping to open the door to the next wave of splitboarding.
Here's a map of all 54.
Nice post! It's influential and inspiring. It's really catchy that any reader can get determined to read the whole post until the end. Keep it up!

Argentina is a must. Gotta work out a good vacation time. I have two trips that would be insane that each would need 2 weeks and would involve summer and winter.
1. one week hike through patagonia with prep time before and after- summer
2. skiing in Bariloche, wine drinking, and site seeing - winter
This February may be possible but remember seasons are backwards. i am thinking next summer go for the winter trip.

Daniel, totally in, your cabin is in a great location...I'd be game for making that my next week long backpacking trip with regards to the U.S. territory. I'd like to add some kayaking or mountain bikes to the mix if possible. right now, I'm planning a little backpacking in Argentina around Feb. - visit Halstead. you down for that?
