THE ONE THING WE WILL SAY IS THAT THE TRAINING OUTLINED HITS HARD, AND DOESN’T MINCE WORDS WHEN IT COMES TO WHAT ENDURANCE MEANS. THIS IS THE STUFF YOU WOULD WISH YOU HAD DONE ALL THOSE TIMES WHEN FACED WITH YOUR LIMITS, AND CONCERNS THE TEARING OF REALITY OUT BEYOND WHERE MOST – MAYBE ALL – OTHER DEFINITIONS OF ENDURANCE END.

THE TRIPS OUTLINED HERE ARE NOT ONLY ALL HAPPENING – THEY ARE CONFIRMED, SCHEDULED AND BOOKED – BUT ARE ALL UNIQUE, TRUE EXPEDITIONS, INTO PLACES RARELY IF EVER VISITED. SOME OF THESE TRIPS ARE CLOSED, TEAMS FINALIZED MONTHS AGO, BUT OTHERS STILL HAVE OPPORTUNITIES TO JOIN OR TO ADAPT INTO THEIR OWN OBJECTIVES.

THE NORDA 001s MAY JUST BE THE BEST CHECK-IN TO GLACIER SHOE AROUND, NONE OF WHICH THEY REALLY MARKET FOR BUT WHICH LOOMS LARGE IN THE THINGS WE LIKE. A CLIMBER COULD MAKE THESE THEIR ONLY SHOES ON A TRIP OTHER THAN THEIR BIG BOOTS IF THEY WERE TO TRAVEL VERY LIGHT AND DIRECT ONTO THE RIGHT SORT OF OBJECTIVE.

WE TAKE OUR COLLABORATIVE EFFORTS VERY SERIOUSLY, AND JUST LIKE OUR EXPEDITIONS AND CLIMBING TEAMS, DO THINGS AT A TEMPO OF ENTHUSIASM AND INNOVATION THAT NOT EVERYONE CAN GET ON BOARD WITH
