Welcome to my hiking and climbing page! This is a repository of my reports dating back into the late 1980s and early 1990s. Anything that required some uphill effort is included here. My interests have varied, starting with the state highpoints, graduating to the county highpoints and more recently, the prominence mountains - mainly in the southwest United States. I hike and/or climb whatever is available and convenient. I have arranged this website by state and from there, if appropriate, by county. You can surf by randomly picking a state seeing what's there. For a chronological listing, see the Complete Highpointing Statistics page, linking from here or on the left side-bar. Other "theme" pages are also found on the left sidebar. Have fun, but remember to read the disclaimer below. There will be a quiz.

(These pages are best viewed on IE, but most browsers should show these pages faithfully, although some word-wrap and other little details may take place giving the pages a slightly off-kilter appearance)

You may click directly on the state to jump to the trip report, or use the list on the left.
