Daughters Hike 48 Peaks With Mom | Boston News

Whitney Pearson just completed an epic thru-hike of New Hampshire’s 48 peaks with her three young daughters—Lydia (6), Demi (3), and Moriah (1)—who hiked over 230 miles and gained nearly 80,000 feet in elevation. Lydia, already a record-holder at age four for summiting all 48 peaks via day hikes, crushed it again this time as part of a continuous, grueling trek. The family camped, stayed in huts, and even hotels, but the girls’ favorite moments were by the campfire. While Whitney carried Moriah and over 60 pounds of gear, the real challenge was parenting through sibling squabbles on the trail. Despite tough terrain, the kids surprised everyone by conquering difficult sections themselves. Whitney hopes to tackle Vermont next summer—and more importantly, wants her daughters to explore every interest, with hiking building unstoppable confidence.
