Peakbagging is the sport of climbing every mountain peak above a certain elevation in a particular State or area.
In August 2017, I completed the 200 Highest Peaks of the Contiguous USA, becoming the first on record to do so. I was accompanied by nine friends as we packed in to Bridger Wilderness WY for the final climb of 13,745' Fremont Peak on the day of the total eclipse. We enjoyed two minutes of eclipse totality on the summit.
