Re: WOC SOTA Summit Values


 

The subject of different points different states is most obvious from here in the Four Corners where I have on any given day Co, Ut, Az, and NM to choose?
from. Its pretty obvious where the skew is. I have done 50 points in a day in AZ. But on the other hand I have done some low point buttes in Utah that are really a bear to get up,?scary. And a lot of those Arizona ones are trail-less and lots of tough thorny bushwhacking. And of course there are the 600 foot elev. ocean side peaks elsewhere I have done that are really difficult. And many 4000 footers in EU have been long and hard for me. Which brings us back to Colorado. I think making Goat in Colorado alone as many of you have needs a star next to it. Its a bigger deal than anywhere except maybe Alaska (visiting my Doc son in Anchorage it was really hard to even find a qualifying peak I could figure out how to approach, I got ONE ) I am down two heart attacks, three stents and a defibrillator. I dont like hiking atbove?10,000 feet at all. Very different from when I was a youngster in Colorado. So I very much?appreciate those who can bag all the 13k Colorado peaks available. You all need a big congratulation. Kudos.?

Yeah, life isn't fair! ;-).? You just need to remind yourself that SOTA isn't a competition....I keep reminding myself of that...particularily when I watch guys in other associations do four or five 8-10pt summits in one day (many driveups....).?
Agreed! The SOTA system actually works pretty well around the world, being adaptable to the local area.
BUT, comparing scoring between Associations does not work very well.
