#51 | Honoring Life & Death in the San Gabriel Mountains & Eastern Sierras, The Ultimate Mount Whitney Sufferfest, Mount Baldy Mountaineering, Hiking To Fight Depression & Hiking to Heal with Cisko

On this episode I have SoCal based trekker, rock climber, ultra trail runner, peak bagger, and mountaineer Cisko (@hikerfighter / @behindthesherpa), join me on the show. We chat about the backstory behind his mysterious face mask, how an unnamed peak in San Bernardino sparked his outdoor journey, his top 3 mountains in California, tips and advice for long day hikes and peak baggers, honoring life and death in the San Gabriel mountains and Eastern Sierras, climbing for Nemo, hiking to fight depression, his ultimate trail angel, mental health and the outdoors, mountaineering Mount Baldy,  and the one outdoor experience he would relive all over again. Cisko is an epic outdoor adventurer in the SoCal community that always pushes himself to greater heights while guiding others to the top. Elevation is truly his recreation.
