2019 Year in Exploration
2019 Stats
Third annual review, once again looking back not just in terms of exploration, but also in the growth of this site.
I’ve been running this site for a couple years now, yet 2019 turned out to be a year of firsts based on the highlights. From getting reacquainted with backpacking to my first long haul kayak trip.
I added 56 locations to the map in 2019, not even worth a chart breakdown this year. I did revise every location (again) to have more complete information and improved the tag system to help find new places. I’ve got a queue of places to add and another for updating.
2019 saw over 20,000 visitors to this site.
Highlights of the Year
- Completing the DEEP Sky’s the Limit Hiking Challenge for the first time
- Kayaking the Connecticut River from the Mass. border to Long Island Sound
- Hiking 32 miles for Connecticut Trail’s Day with Mat Jobin in Pachaug State Forest
- Revisiting the newly reopened Sleeping Giant after it was closed for more than a year
- Guiding a hike for the first time at Moss Sanctuary for Walktober
