Akkana Peck on Nostr: Made it up Deception Peak yesterday! This is the hardest hike my hiking group tackles ...
Made it up Deception Peak yesterday! This is the hardest hike my hiking group tackles (2500' in 6.4 mi, 10,350 to 12,320'; I wasn't sure I was up to it with my heart issues, and because I've been dragging on a few recent high-altitude hikes. Dave noticed that I did better on a day when we'd eaten out the previous night (vs usual low-salt diet) so the morning of the hike, I had some salt with breakfast. I felt great on the hike! \o/
Here's a 360-degree panorama from the top.
