Great information from our friends at Mammoth March!

Q: WHAT IS ELEVATION GAIN?

A: Elevation gain is the total amount of uphill climbing you complete during a hike. It adds together every climb along the route, not just the difference between the starting point and the highest point.

For example, if you climb 200 feet, walk downhill, and then climb another 300 feet, your total elevation gain is 500 feet.

Why does this matter? A route with more elevation gain will usually feel more challenging because uphill sections require extra effort from your legs, lungs, and heart. Two trails can be the same distance, but the one with more elevation gain may take longer and require more energy.

When preparing for your MammothMarch, check both the distance and elevation gain. Adding hills, stairs, or incline treadmill walks to your training can help prepare your body for the climbs ahead!
