Upholding a Thursday Tradition

Slide Show: Over the Hill Gang

Nothing can stop these gentlemen from conquering the mountaintops. Not snow nor water. Not blindness nor heart attacks.
It would take a mathematician with plenty of time on his hands to calculate the total miles traveled by the Over the Hill Gang, a group of avid hikers whose average age is in the mid-60s. They meet every snow-less Thursday of the year to hike a different route in Glacier National Park. When the snow falls, some of them slap on their cross-country skis and keep the Thursday tradition alive year-round.
