Bio: I moved to Las Vegas at the end of 2020. For me & my family it was a COVID silver lining.
Age: 47
Why did you joined: When I moved to Las Vegas, I saw an article about the 52 Peak Club in the Las Vegas Review Journal and I thought it would be a nice way to discover some of the behind the scenes natural beauty in the Las Vegas Valley and meet new people.
Date Completed all 52 Peaks: Saturday August 13, 2022
Toughest Peak: A combination of Rainbow, Rainbow Wall, Gunsight Notch & rappelling down to Juniper Peak. It was one of the most physically challenging hikes I did but the rappel made it exhilarating
Favorite Hike: White Pinnacle, Ice Box, Eva's Tower
How did you feel once you became a 53er: I felt the most incredible sense of accomplishment. I am so proud of myself that I was able to conquer every peak and become Hiking Las Vegas's 216th 53er. I also felt immense gratitude for all the time the leaders spent taking me on these incredible adventures & for the awesome friends I met along the way.
Advice for new hikers: Just do it!
