Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Cleanup biography
Arthur H. Marshall was the first person to successfully reach the highest point in every U.S. state.[1] He was born in 1879 in Tennessee.[2] In 1936, Marshall completed this goal by visiting Hoosier Hill in Indiana for his 48th highpoint.[3] Marshall began his journey by climbing Mount Rainier in Washington in 1919. Being a lifelong bachelor, Marshall found the time to travel to reach a mountain or hill. Marshall worked for the railway and did not drive, so he would reach each point by travelling at a discount by railway to the nearest station and would then hire a driver to take him as close as possible via roadway.[4]
After completing the initial goal, Marshall travelled back to Arkansas as there were two high points of equal height. Marshall travelled miles through the woods to reach the last one.Шаблон:Citation needed
