The Cystic Fibrosis
Foundation’s Xtreme Hike program takes hikers through some of the most scenic
trails in the nation to raise funds and awareness for cystic fibrosis.
Xtreme Hike is about reaching new heights physically and
philanthropically. It is a journey of passion, determination, and
personal triumph, as much as it is an opportunity to make a difference in the
lives of people with cystic fibrosis.
