Brian & Remy's NH4K Quest

There are forty-eight mountains in New Hampshire that are above 4000 foot in elevation. It’s something of a feat for someone to climb to the peaks of all of these mountains, so much so that there are web pages, books, contests, and a huge amount of New Hampshire hiking lore wrapped up around the 4000ers.

During the first year of the Covid 19 pandemic, Brian Herr and I decided to go climb a bunch of them as a way to stay sane. I’d already been up perhaps a dozen of them, but Brian and I had so much fun that we decided to take the challenge semi-seriously, so started working our way through the list when we had time and inclination. It’s made for some great adventures, amazing photos, and really sore feet.

The map on this page shows our progress:

Yellow stars are peaks we’ve both completed (23)

Red stars are peaks I’ve done but Brian hasn’t yet (4)

Blue points are peaks we have yet to do (21)

Peaks Done

These are the peaks we’ve climbed, in reverse chronological order. I’ve written up a few of these hikes and created photo albums - where those exist, I’ve linked to them.
