THERE’S A LOT GOING ON HERE

WE BARTERED OUR SOULS AT THE CROSS ROADS OF TURKESTAN AND TIBET A LONG TIME AGO, IN EXCHANGE FOR GAINING ACCESS TO THE LARGEST COLLECTION OF UNCLIMBED HIGH ALTITUDE PEAKS ON EARTH. WE WILLINGLY HANDED OVER ANY PLACE IN THE COMMERCIAL CLIMBING INDUSTRY, TO HAVE PERMISSION TO PLACES FAMOUS FOR BEING KNOWN AS FORBIDDEN

AS MUCH AS WE CAN SELL THIS AS ‘RETRO’, ‘PROTO’, ‘RETURN TO’, ‘OLD SKOOL’, ‘STRAIGHT EDGE’ OR ‘RAW DOG’ WE ARE NOT – WE SIMPLY DO ALPINISM AT ITS MOST STRAIGHTFORWARD, WHICH IS TO GO CLIMB COOL STUFF IN AMAZING PLACES WITH AS LITTLE BULLSHIT AS POSSIBLE.

“WE HATE TO ADVOCATE COOKING INSIDE TENTS, FRANKEN-STOVES, AFTER-MARKET PARTS AND PATCHED TOGETHER HEAT EXCHANGERS TO ANYONE, BUT THEY’VE ALWAYS WORKED FOR US” – HUNTER S THOMPSON (SORT OF)

IN 2025 WE HAVE LARGE BLOCKS DEVOTED TO VARIOUS REGIONS AND OBJECTIVES, CAPITALIZING ON CONDITIONS ACROSS AN AREA THE SIZE OF CONTINENTAL EUROPE. WITHIN THIS REGION ARE THOUSANDS OF OBJECTIVES INCLUDING THE WORLDS HIGHEST, REMOTEST, MOST OBSCURE AND LEAST ATTEMPTED MOUNTAINS, THAT AWAIT THE RIGHT CLIMBERS WITH THE RIGHT STUFF TO CLIMB THEM.

BETWEEN NOVEMBER 1st AND DECEMBER 16th 2024 WE ARE ON EXPEDITION IN TIBET AND THE KARAKORUM. WE EXPECT NO INTERNATIONAL COMMUNICATIONS DURING THIS TIME. PLEASE SEND ENQUIRIES AS USUAL, AND THEY WILL BE ANSWERED IN ORDER OF ARRIVAL AND PRIORITY ON RETURN. IT IS BUSINESS AS USUAL UNTIL THE DAY OF DEPARTURE.
