“I left Ushuaia as from an unwanted tomb.”

That’s how Bruce Chatwin described his departure from the city at the end of the world in his famous book “In Patagonia” from the 1980th.

I feel quite the opposite.

I can hardly wait to be back.

The mountains above the Beagle Channel, the wind, the snow, and that extraordinary sense of being at the very edge of the world.

But most of all, I’m looking forward to seeing so many good friends and fellow mountain guides from Ice Axe Expeditions again.

We’ll start with some beautiful ski touring around Glaciar Martial, warming up our legs before setting sail for our Antarctic expedition.

Sometimes the end of the world is exactly where you want to be.

Mountain and river guides take people into wild places so they can experience something greater than themselves. Public lands are those wild places.

Trevor, Shane and Dustin will stand up for the places you care about. Will you join them?

Comment STAND and we’ll DM you the petition about 3 demands: No Sell-offs. No Giveaways. No Backroom Deals.

TourMentorship. A season long mentorship with a focus on touring. Not a zoom school. Classic tours in real life conditions, executed as a group with students leading more and more throughout the season.
❄️
Bonus. Free enrollment in our virtual mentorship, Terrain Talks, which is a zoom school, sort of but so much more.

Goodies from the Guide Development Program! 📸

In case you’re new here, our BIPOC Guide Development Program provides mentorship, community, and technical training to the next generation of mountain guides. You may have seen our 2026 crew drilling rope skills in North Bend, dropping into crevasses on Mount Baker, or even holding important strategy meetings (over pizza & icecream) at the Seattle waterfront. We’re off to climb El Dorado next - say hello if you spot us!

This trailblazing program is backed by a strong support network of very cool guide mentors, a mastermind leadership team @mountainmaryanna & @jorgedeaventura, and rad gear sponsors @thenorthface & @blackdiamond. Our training is ✨free✨ to each of the aspiring guides it serves.

We may be biased, but spending the summer with this team seems pretty hard to top ☀️

BTS sea to summit Adams. sunrise to sunset to sunrise. 21.5 hrs 225 miles. 24400 feet climbed.

even the morning we left, we were still debating whether 40+ mph summit winds made the attempt a bad idea.

i was nervous going into it . every time my mind jumped ahead, i reminded myself: chunk it down.

i knew i could do each individual piece. i hadn’t found my physical limit recently.

the hallucinations and dizziness on the climb were a trip. but my legs remained strong. fueling was on point and my mental game strong. proud of this one. thanks to all those who supported and believed in me :))

Sea to Summit. Mt Adams. Pacific Ocean -> Summit

225 miles. 24,400 climbed. 21hr 25 min. to best of my knowledge the first documented human powered completion.

We started at the wreck of Peter Iredale, just west of Astoria. @mickwalshthedub was my awesome ride buddy

Then we pointed our bikes east.

And ate and biked

a lot

it was often beautiful. this is the swift reservoir near Helens

Martha put on a master course in support. She met us every 3 hrs with fruit, pretzels, coke and offerings of sandwiches from the cooler. i kept tell myself that i just had to get to her every 3 hrs with empty bottles and having consumed 900 more calories.

heading up to trailhead. It was great to finally SEE adams.

sunset. total ride time 14.5 hrs. moon.

met @shanecrobinson at trailhead !

said fairwell to @mickwalshthedub and Martha (and tried to shove a banana in my stomach)

Summited 6.5 hrs later. legs and breathing were solid. hallucinations/ dizziness not cool. mental game / breaking things down helped a lot.

Felt tremendous support from friends and family (thank you for the texts thru the day!)

enjoyed views on way down. sunrise descending was gorgeous. had a spectacular unintentional 5 min nap at a break.

mountain silhouette. always a winner.

Made it to work the next day after a solid 12 hours sleep. Honestly felt better than most my coworkers 🍻🤭

and enjoyed a sandwich that had traveled to the summit. love me 3 day old PB and J. curated !!

appreciative of nature. lookie here!

and friends who support my dreams with meticulous planning🧐. Huge shout out to @c0.bra for putting 22 hours into my two bikes that literally were not working at all 1 week out 👀. i love you!

Schools out for the summer, but you might need to head back to @trewgear summer (ski) school 😬. Tune in for the third and final episode — @shanecrobinson is dropping some knowledge on how to better utilize your heel risers to keep your quads feeling strong so you don't get those rubbery legs on the way down.

Shane is rocking the @trewgear Up Jack breathable layer to stay cool and comfortable on the hike up.
