This is the beginning.

My wife and I found a list in Backpacker Magazine (May 2009) called "America's 100 Best Dayhikes" and we thought it would be cool to complete all of them together. At first we just made lists and tried to find some of them on Google Earth. Then, after completing the first two here in Oregon, we really made the decision to go through with the plan. I started compiling data on the hikes and mapping them with Google Maps. The result was a map full of pins with no clear place to begin. Sure, 20% of them are within a days drive of our house -- Gas isn't cheap and neither of us get paid vacation.

This Blog serves to chronicle our adventure(s). Sort of an online scrapbook for us to look back on. Hopefully we'll be able to knock out these hikes out in the next few years.
