LIVE FOR ADVANTURE

Karma has a pretty funny way of making life work, putting people in the right place at the right time. We had a decision to make, chase our career, and move to New York or buy a van and see the world. Well a few months later, unbeknownst to us, buying a van was the best decision we could have ever made, not only because van life is awesome but also because there was a pandemic coming and moving to New York would have been a nightmare.

Beneath the Ice

Beneath the Ice

In the remote, icy wilderness on the Greenland ice cap, a gaping hole marked the spot where climber Will Gadd and his support crew and film team would descend into the unknown. A moulin is basically a giant hole in a glacier, created when surface water finds its way into a crack in the ice and melts through. And in this dream project, the plan was to climb into one and go deep inside the Greenland ice cap to a place nobody has ever been before.

The quest for fresh powder and the need to carve first lines has always been an addiction for skiers. What is different is the fact that more and more people are choosing to embark on this quest in the NZ backcountry.

If so, it’s time to ask some serious questions: “Is this more than a hobby? “Can I stop if I want to? What can I do about it?”
