Someone recently asked, how do you get in the habit of doing regular hikes?
My suggestion was to set a goal. Last year, I wanted to beat my previous year’s mileage by 100. This year I set a goal to do 50 miles/month. I’ve seen others set goals for # of peaks or # of hikes in a year.
Settings goals really brings a focus to WHAT to are doing because you’re constantly thinking about HOW you’re going to do it.
What’s your approach for making this a habit?
Didn`t really need snowshoes today but wanted to try out the new replacement bindings (thanks @tubbssnowshoes). I`m glad I did tho since there were enough drifts up high that would have made post-holing a be-ach.

Finally found some winter-like weather...
I just had to get above 9,000 feet to find it!

It might be mid-December, but Fall is still fighting to hang on. We need a few big winter storms to finally tip this scale.

Catarata del Toro plunges down some 300 feet into an old volcanic crater.

Hiking to La Cruz de Alajuelita has been on my list since 2019... and finally got to do it on the tail end of this last business trip to Costa Rica. A 4-mile loop with 2,000` of elevation gain in the foothills of San Jose was still a jungle-like experience, numerous river crossings and all!

This slot pair never gets old even though I`ve been through them over a dozen times. It`s also fun showing this to people who are new to such an experience.

One of my favorite sections along the South Kaibab Trail as you hike down into the Grand Canyon.
