Below are the names of the soldiers whose stones we will carry on our hike. The Summit Project asks that each hiker become familiar with the story of the soldier whose stone he or she will carry. Please learn the story or the honored heroes in advance of the hike. Click on the name of an honored soldier below to experience his or her story.
After choosing a soldier whose stone you wish to carry, please email Rachel Davis with his or her name. (If a stone has already been reserved by a hiker, you will see a notation next to his or her name below.)
