What is a 4,000 footer?
The term 4,000 footers (or 4ks) refers to a group of 67 mountains in New England of interest in the sport of peak-bagging. Each peak must be at least 4,000 feet tall, and have a prominence of at least 200 feet to qualify as a 4,000 footer. The New England 4,000 footer mountains lie mainly in NH (48 of them) and the rest in VT and ME (5 in VT, and 14 in ME).
Me on the summit of Osceola Mountain. The mountain in the background is East Osceola, where I just hiked from.
