    In this episode, I’m introducing the Utah County High Points Challenge — my personal mission to summit all the county high points in Utah by May 2028. Whether you live in Utah or in another state, you can take on this same challenge in your own backyard by summiting all the county high points where you live. https://www.peakbagger.com/list.aspx?lid=13209 I have already summited two of the high points in two Utah counties, including Deseret Peak (11,031 ft.) in Tooele County and Brian Head Peak (11,307 ft.) in Iron County. I have 27 peaks left to complete this challenge. I would need to average 9 high points per year by May 2028 to complete this. Here’s what I cover in today’s episode: What the Utah County High Points Challenge is and why I’m taking it onHow can you adapt this challenge for your own state or regionWhy this isn’t just about hiking — it’s about building your fitness, improving your nutrition, and pushing yourself to the next level.The mindset, training, and planning required for a multi-year adventure goalHow you can follow my progress and get inspired to set your own “big stretch” goal Whether you’re an experienced hiker, a weekend warrior, or someone who loves chasing epic goals, this challenge will push your limits and show you what you’re truly capable of.
