Walk to Mordor 2022 Progress Update (& Welcome!)

Welcome to those who recently joined us!

Our Fellowship is now at least 51 Fresno County residents strong, with 14 currently at Rivendell (129 miles!) and one already in Lothlorien (259 miles!).

These numbers, of course, only account for folks who have submitted the webform on this site to let us know they've reached milestones.

When you've made it to one (or more) of the five Middle-earth locations, don't forget to submit your mileage and claim your commemorative badge(s)!


Also, if you're on Facebook or Instagram, please share updates from your journey with us using the hashtag #FresnoWalkstoMordor. We'd love to see what you and your Fellowship are up to! 

(Thank you again to Lizzy's human family for sending in this snapshot from their journey.)
