6 Peaks. 82 Miles. Over 27,000′ Vertical Gain. One Epic Challenge.
Hiking for a Good Cause
Support the next-generation of outdoor enthusiasts
This year we are once again raising money for Big City Mountaineers -- an awesome non-profit organization that instills critical life skills in under-resourced urban youth through transformative wilderness mentoring expeditions. 4% of each registration goes to BCM, and this year, we are teaming up to double our fundraising results from last year.
Mount Wilson
The lowest of the peaks, this astronomically-significant peak can be hiked year round, but is best in winter and spring.
Mount Baldy
It's official name? Mount San Antonio. It's the tallest peak in LA County at 10,068 feet, and a mountain that everyone in SoCal recognizes.
Mount San Jacinto
Towering high between Palm Springs and Idyllwild, this peak travels through Alpine terrain that feels more like the Sierra Mountains.
Cucamonga Peak
This starts up popular Icehouse Canyon, then keeps on going. The reward? Epic views over the Inland Empire.
San Bernardino Peak
A long trail that's less crowded, but many Challengers have called it their favorite.
San Gorgonio Peak
At 11,503 feet, Old Grayback is highest peak in Southern California, and a worthy accomplishment in its own right. You can't get any higher without a prescription!

What is the story behind the Six-Pack of Peaks?
I created the Six-Pack of Peaks when I was training for a through-hike of the John Muir Trail. Since then, others have used it to prepare for Mt Whitney and other big adventures.
Completing the Six-Pack is a feat that few can claim, and great for bragging rights and trail cred.
How do I register for The Challenge?
You can register for the Six-Pack of Peaks Challenge here. We offer three registration levels, giving you the flexibility to select the perfect option for you.
Can I give registration as a gift?
Yes! You can give a Six-Pack of Peaks gift certificate. It’s the gift that lasts for miles and miles. Note that each challenger must register online themselves for their account to be setup correctly.
Do you have challenges in my area?
Possibly! We currently have challenges in Southern California, Colorado, Oregon and soon, Northern California.
