  Nina and Jeremys Big Idea Summer, 2020   Beranger, Savoie, France   The choice of vehicle wasn’t simple. It had to be more than a camper van—reliable off-road and in remote parts of the world, and tough enough to transport a climbing wall (yes, you read that right), all of our rock-climbing gear, photography equipment, and oh yeah, also be a small...

The Carretera Austral by Bicycle: A Wild Ride through Chilean Patagonia

Shoulder Season Bikepacking in Europe
  Spring and autumn should not be ignored for cycle travel. Theres a real joy and satisfaction that you can find with “out-of-season” travel that youll never get if you think of summer as your only option for cycling and adventure.

The Dream Line: Hilaree Nelson’s Historic First Descent of the Lhotse Couloir

The First Rule of Adventure: Failures are Never Failures
  Story and Photography by Eric Larsen   They were hard questions to receive: “How do you know when to pull the plug on an adventure?” “What do you learn when you come up short?”   I think that both of these topics are relevant, interesting and worthwhile; however, the timing of the inquiry—a few weeks after I returned from a “failed” expedition...

Packrafting the Flathead River in Montana’s Bob Marshall Wilderness
  Packrafting opened up a world of adventure for me. Being from the desert, the idea of hauling a raft deep into the wilderness was fairly novel.
