This is my 2006 hiking log. Mountains I've done before appear in italic style. Temperature readings (celcius) from Ulriken thermometer. Windspeed readings (highest m/s) from my Sillva Windwatch anemometer. Note: "VM" means true vertical meters climbed. An asterix (*) after "Time" means I hiked after dark. PF means primary factor.
I am NOT aiming to break any past "records" in 2006....
See also the hikes I did in 2005, 2004, 2003, 2002, 2001, 2000 and 1999.
