New Idaho 12ers Record

by reboyles » Mon Aug 18, 2014 7:23 pm

Luke Nelson and Jared Campbell set a new record this past weekend for climbing all of Idaho's 12ers in one non-stop trip. Idaho 12ers are found in three different ranges, The Lost River, Pioneer and Lemhi ranges. They beat the old record by an amazing 10 hours and 32 minutes. Here's a link to the Idaho 12er's home page.

Here's their trip report. I'm not sure how much vertical was involved but it had to be close to 50,000 total (up and down).
