On March 12, 2017, Mya Jane became the 137th 53er. What's a 53er, you ask? A hiker who has climbed all 52 Peaks with the 52 Peak Club, which is the premiere hiking and self-confidence organization in Las Vegas, NV. To climb all 52 Peaks involves hiking around 300 miles and gaining 120,000 feet (8,000 flights of stairs) in elevation! It's not an easy task to complete and it's not meant to be. It took Mya over a year to climb all 52 Peaks, since she does not live in Las Vegas! She flew in from Madison, WI, to climb her final peak, which was Rainbow Peak. What is the 52 Peak Club?Each time you hike to a peak with the group you earn a card. Your goal: earn all 52 cards by hiking the 52 Peaks. During your journey you will overcome your fears, push yourself more than you thought possible, and have the time of your life. 137 hikers have climbed all 52 Peaks, including Mya. Almost 1,000 other hikers are working toward that goal. The 52 Peak Club is like 52 Tough Mudders and Cross-Fit in the great outdoors.
