Mike and Jason head to Portland, Oregon for the ultimate mountain adventure. They’ll attempt the first known summit and circumnavigation of Mount Hood, a brutal 42 mile tour of the mountain, within a 24 hour period.

The Jackson Hole Picnic is an unofficial triathlon attempted by some of the most elite athletes in the world. It entails a 24 mile bike ride, a 1.5 mile alpine lake swim, then a summit of the Grand Teton before turning around and doing it all in reverse on their way back to town.

The guys head home to Boston and into the White Mountains, where they first cut their teeth. The mission is to complete the Presidential Traverse in a single day, taking in all 10 summits -- including Mount Washington where the strongest winds in American history have been recorded -- before getting Jason back on a plane to make it home for his daughter’s 2nd birthday.
