45/365
Inexperienced kayakers paddling 50-plus days across the Tasman Sea, unsupported; A Swiss speed climbing the North face of the Eiger in under three hours; Mountain biking; Extreme sport pioneering; Sherpa training; Wild Animals in their element.
Lots of adventure at the Banff Mountain Film Festival last night. Not bad for a Valentines Day date. Here's the trailer, but just a warning, it's only worth watching until the two-minute mark when they start naming sponsors.
And on a personal adventure note: 40 days until our tentative airlift date on Madison. Last night the Presidential Range had a 117 mph wind gust, and this morning when I checked the temperature on the summit of Washington, it was -18 with a windchill of -60. I can't wait to be back. Maybe its a bit egotistical, but I think they could have made a film about us up there. Lots of breaking tools and dick jokes, but adventurous nonetheless.
