Kilian Jornet aims to explore the American West through a new project called States of Elevation, linking the 14,000-foot peaks across the U.S. Starting at Longs Peak, Colorado, and finishing at Mount Rainier, Washington, he may attempt to conquer all 72 peaks. This venture follows his notable achievements in the Alps and Pyrenees. Jornet previously completed the Alpine Connections challenge, linking 82 peaks by foot and bike, and emphasizes the importance of beauty and exploration in his projects.
Jornet plans to start at Longs Peak in Colorado and end at Mount Rainier in Washington, potentially tackling all 72 of the 14,000-foot peaks in the U.S.
He linked all 82 of the 4,000-meter peaks in the Alps, a 1,207-kilometer adventure he referred to as "the most challenging thing I've ever done in my life."
