[QUOTE="Skimbleshanks, post: 2037434, member: 22552"] Loads of stuff in Oregon to climb. 1 I really like is hiking from Timberline Lodge to the top of the Palmer chairlift as a fitness hike. Good excercise AND it's at elevation. In season or with the correct equipment South Sister is a great hike as well. Lots of conflicting ideas about fitness and mountain fitness in particular. Id say focus on strength, cardio, and flexibility. It all matters. Pick up the book Training For The New Alpinism: A Manual For The Climber As An Athlete. By Scott Johnston and Steve House. Its not just a do this excercise, get strong book. It tells you why you get strong and how to develop the different types of strength you might be lacking. [/QUOTE]
