How to turn this list into an actual date

  • Match the trail to your combined fitness level. A viewpoint you can reach in 45 minutes beats a summit you both resent by mile three.
  • Say the length and difficulty honestly before you go. Nobody has ever fallen in love mid-blisters.
  • Views are the payoff; the conversation on the way up is the point. Pick somewhere with a real payoff at the end.
  • Bring more water than you think, and offer half of it. That's the whole personality test.
