A hike to Jupiter Peak...

Since 1995, we've done that hike about 14 times. We typically leave the car at Empire Pass and walk up the ridge to Jupiter Peak. The trip is 4.27 mile r/t (6,87 km) with a vertical gain is 1,058 ft (322 m).

The last time we climbed up that way was in 2010. Jupiter Peak towers over Park City at 9,990 ft (3045 m), but the highest point is in fact farther away, behind the Jupiter Chair at 10,027 ft (3130 m).

In recent years, the last eight to be precise, our hiking has suffered a great deal from our mountain biking. We should do more of it!
