    Episode #8: 2023 TFNU Peak Challenge

    The 2023 TFNU Peaks Challenge- Info The TFNU Peaks Challenge is a self-paced trail challenge for Northern Utah trail lovers to set a goal to bag all four or our iconic local Peaks in one season. Ranging in elevation from Malans at 6980 feet all the way to Ben Lomond Peak at 9711 feet. Anyone who has completed any of these four peaks will tell you that they can be a bit of a challenge. Participants choose when to complete each of the four peaks (Malans, Lewis, Mt.Ogden & Ben Lomond - just like the levels of our TFNU membership program). Peaks can be done any time, and in any order, between June 3rd, 2023 & October 14th, 2023. Whether you end up bagging just one or do all four - participants will receive an exclusive peak sticker for each mountain top you reach and a big sticker when you complete all four peaks.  Participants bagging all four peaks during that time will also be honored at the TFNU Fall Trail Mixer October 26th at the Monarch and receive a pretty cool surprise.
