BOSTON — The Appalachian Mountain Club’s Four Thousand Footer Committee has resumed counting ascents of peaks achieved after June 5, 2020.

The new guidance reverses a policy enacted April 13, when the committee ruled that until New Hampshire's stay-at-home orders were lifted, it would not accept peaks bagged during that period.
