"So I was sitting in my cubicle today, and I realized, ever since I started working, every single day of my life has been worse than the day before it. So that means that every single day that you see me, that's on the worst day of my life."

Complete waste of time-never againMy employer sent me to Indianapolis for some training. We had free weekend and my co-worker wanted to visit Hoosier Hill while I wanted to visit some caves. Unfortunately, I let the co-worker (whom shall remain nameless) have the final say and we went to Hoosier Hill.
It’s not even a hill and I’ll never forgive my co-worker for this. This is the single most disappointing and sorriest excuse for a hill I’ve seen in my life! Needless to say, I will never go there again.
(No offence to anyone whom might actually like this place, but I didn't in the least).

Hoosier HighpointThe road leading up to this highpoint is a great road. It was very pretty, full of great fall colors. It's bumpy too, like a roller coaster. The highpoint area is really cleaned up nice. It's very peaceful and quiet. Looked very nice too in the fall. A cool highpoint.

HPTaking scenic route to Cleveland, bagging some state and county highpoints. Strange hobby, driving to stand in the midst of a grove of trees in nowheres Indiana. A wonderful way to see country, meet people and visit areas I wouldn't see otherwise. Ate apple and enjoyed. State #16.

#6My brother and I were driving I-70 from Colorado to Pennsylvania, and since it's so close to the interstate, we had to make the stop. It was my 6th highpoint, and I think it was my brother's 12th.

Hardest summit on the planetWalked right up to this one, and had to investigate the mailbox in the middle of nowhere. I was going after the geocache located in the same spot, I signed the log book.

12th of 13 state highpoints for meI was in Dayton, Ohio for a conference and took an early morning sidetrip into Indiana to bag this highpoint at 8:15 AM. I bagged Campbell Hill in Ohio the next morning with a friend/coworker, Bristol Ellington.

Route Climbed: Elliot Road Date Climbed: December 28, 2005 While on vacation to the state of my birth and life until age 23, I proceeded to Hoosier Hill, a nicely kept State Highpoint. Glad to say that I've looked down upon all those in Indiana.To see the pictures from Hoosier Hill, click here.

Route Climbed: 100 Yard Dash from Car Date Climbed: August 2003I grew up only 15 miles from the highest point in Indiana. However, it took me 30 years to get there. The summit was a great family experience with my Colorado cousins making the journey to the peak. We were mistaken by the false summit of the adjacent cornfield before we found the ID sign along the roadside. Wow! What a view of Indiana woodlands from the summit.

Route Climbed: There was a route? Date Climbed: May 28, 2003Wife and I summitted this beast in record time. This was our 4th high point, though high and point are not words I was thinking of at the time of summitting. More like fields, trees & bugs. Highpointing though does take you to areas of the country I know I would never have gone to see on my own. God's creation is good even in the flatlands.

Date Climbed: august 2002First state highpoint acheived. This was the week after a failed attempt at Long's Peak so this was helped me feel better bagging this monster ;)

Route Climbed: Cart Road Date Climbed: 8/14/01I took I-74 to I-70 just to grab this highpoint. Off I-70, I took the rollercoaster road to the highpoint area. I managed to find the highpoint in the area, and got my third highpoint in three days!
