Alaska & Hawaii ultra's
Posted: Fri Dec 09, 2005 5:12 pmI've been curious as to why the ULTRA's (prominence>5000') are listed for the 48 states only.
This list answers the question, at least for Alaska, which has 63 ULTRA's!
I might've guessed 10-20. Now that would be an impressive accomplishment!!
Hawaii has 5, 2 more than I guessed off the top of my head. Three of the 5 are reasonably hikeable. I don't know about the secondary point on Maui. Of course, the Kauai hp is currently the Holy Grail of county highpointing!
I suggest we add the Hawaii ULTRA's if only to give Bob Bolton more motivation to go after 'em!! :) What do you think, Bob?
