On Saturday, Oct 23rd I attempted the most difficult trek in my outdoor journey and that was tackling the peak bagging extravaganza known as the #FoolsTraverse Challenge hosted by TRVRS Outdoors. The Fool's Traverse is an 11 peak endurance challenge located in the Mount Baldy area that is 26 miles long, and up to 12,000 ft elevation gain. Participants need to strategically navigate to as many peaks and checkpoints as physically capable to win prizes from sponsors and to claim bragging rights as #SoCal mountain goats. This was an adventure for the books and also a suffer fest I will never forget and neither will my body. I shared my overall thoughts from the day, the highs and lows, and recap how the adventure all unfolded. 

Shout outs to my #FoolsTraverse crew @elementsofdaisy @canelaadventures @626sly @from.matts.mat for being the most inspiring and badass group one could ask for tackling this epic challenge. We pushed for the peaks, enjoyed incredible views along the way, and most importantly formed a strong bond with one another. Cheers to pushing ourselves in our outdoor pursuits!
