Peak bagging
Peak bagging is the outdoor activity of climbing to the highest points, or "peaks," in a specific area, region, or mountain range. Enthusiasts, known as peak baggers, often set personal goals to climb a certain number of peaks, sometimes focusing on notable mountains like the highest in a state or country. This pastime combines hiking, mountaineering, and exploration, appealing to those who enjoy nature, challenge, and accomplishment. It encourages a deeper understanding of geography and ecosystems while promoting physical fitness and adventure. Some peak baggers keep lists or logs of the peaks they have successfully summited.
