PROVO — The owner of Timpanogos Hiking Co. is reviving an old tradition of giving people a badge after they have summited Mount Timpanogos.
states a man named Alfred Pace summited the mountain 40 years in a row and collected all 40 badges while the tradition lasted. So the company created a run of badges for 2023 and has plans to do "like they used to do" and create new, distinct designs for each year to bring back the tradition, Vogel said.
"It's really fun because come down and you just meet all kinds of people and learn about their connection with the mountain and their adventures," Vogel said. "One of the coolest things when you have something like this, is when it just becomes organic and by word of mouth it starts to spread," he said.
