Damn!! Wish I could go!! Be sure and post pics. :nod:
I got switched on to this idea a few years back. So far All I've got done are: Nebo, Thurston, AF Twins, King's. I made an attepmt at Signal in Washington County in winter- after 5 miles of post-holing we got to the TRAILHEAD. We called it at that point. I'm currious to know what everyone thinks is the mors difficult high-point in Utah. We did Kings in a 13 hr round-trip death-march. I was a horny 17 year old at the time. Something like that would kill me now. Ahhh memories of when I was young and capable.

The hardest one for me was Ibapah. But really for those who are in shape and hike regularly, its shouldnQuote:

I have put up a page at Summitpost devoted to the Utah county highpoints and by using it and the easy links I"ve set up, you can get a ton of info on
all of the county highpoints. It is great fun.
