My Xtreme Hike Story
Kenneth Caputo
Fundraising for Yosemite Xtreme Hike 2026
Kenneth Caputo
Once again I have dedicated myself to conquering an Extreme Hike to benefit those afflicted with CF - cystic fibrosis. And this year I will take on the challenge with my son Cam. I hope you will join our effort by making the CF Foundation one of your worthy charities.
CF is a genetic, life-shortening disease that devastates the lungs, pancreas, and other vital organs. CF makes it difficult to breathe and fight life-threatening infections, often leading to extensive lung damage and respiratory failure. There is currently no cure, and far too many people with CF die young. But with your help, progress is being made, as treatments continue to evolve to address the diversity of mutations and variability in patient responses.
Our challenge this year will be to hike 19+ miles in Yosemite NP, and scale Mt. Hoffman at 10,800’ in one day. I hope you will team up with us by making a generous donation in support of our efforts and the efforts of those dedicated to curing CF.
Will you help us end cystic fibrosis?
By donating to my fundraising goal, you have the power to advance the research and science needed to drive our shared dream forward – a cure for everyone with CF.
