We've reached the end.  It's with mixed emotions that Bryan and I have decided that this will be the final episode of this experiment in grassroots storytelling. It's been an incredible adventure for us. The athletes left us inspired.  The comm
Dawn breaks on Mount Rainier and it's time for the 6,000-foot climb from base camp to the summit. This is the chance for Greg Hill to summit the mountain that launched him on his skiing career.  Now, if only the weather will window will hold lo
Craig and Jarem launch off on Lurking Fear. If they are successful this will be the first all disabled ascent of Yosemite's iconic El Capitan and a landmark achievement in Craig's climbing career.  Hang on.
Rising 14,000 feet above sea level, Mount Rainier is where many aspiring mountaineers go to test their skills. Crevasses, hanging glaciers, weather that's not always predictable. At 19, Greg had the climbing bug and set his sights on Rainier. B
"Am I disaster prone?" asks Ryan Peterson. After nine days on the river, the search for the Ghost Run isn't going well. We see fish, but catching them is a different story. We have a big foot encounter. A big low is screaming towards the coast.
The season is coming to a close in Squamish. Thomo's attempts on The Method (v12) are numbered before setting out on another year of road tripping across North America.  
Winter came early and shut down Kevin and Jeremy's work in the burn.  The coldest season overstayed its welcome well into May. By the time the ground had dried enough to return to work, the access road into the forest suddenly sprouted a gate w
Spread across Greg Hill's downstairs man cave are a series of maps stitched together. The Purcells. Monashees. Selkirks. Adamants. Valhallas. British Columbia's ranges extend outward from the hub of Revelstoke. Meticulous pencil lines are drawn
"The LIst is this ongoing process in my head," says climber Craig DeMartino. Each season, his mind wanders over past climbs. They bubble to the surface and Craig makes it a point to go out and repeat them, but over the years a funny thing happe
“It’s sort of a cliché, but there is this fishing joke that says – there is only one other sensation that can compare,” says Ryan Peterson. “I’ll leave it at that.” After days without landing a fish and living on the river, our fishing lives ar
In 2010, Greg Hill achieved the unthinkable. He ski toured two million vertical feet. He'd spent the prior decade prior shaping his body into a powder slaying weapon, sharpening his understanding of British Columbia's sometimes dangerous snow p
Craig DeMartino barely survived his 100 foot fall.  After three months in the ER, critical care and rehabilitation centers, he was able to return home to his family and something that resembled his life before the accident. His frail body made
The Ghost Run exists. Top Dog proved it. The pictures taped to wall of the Salmon River Outpost are worth a thousand words. With the rising water from recent snow and rain, the fish are moving up river and Ryan goes to work floating and fishing
After Cedar was born, Thomasina moved back home and tried to make a go of settling down. Newfoundland provided a sense of home. It was a place where store owners knew locals' names and people helped one another. She managed it for a few months,
We've got a ghost story for you. The Klamath River, running through the rugged Northern California mountains, used to hold the fourth largest population of salmon and steelhead in the world. Every year millions of fish would surge up stream. No
Jeremy and Kevin have spent the whole summer digging, building, riding and then refining the trails through the Burn. It's consumed the summer months and headed right into fall. Linking up the series of gaps, rock drops and step downs has come
In 2002, Craig DeMartino's life should have ended. Craig took a 100-foot ground  fall after a miscommunication with his climbing partner. The accident left Craig in a wheelchair and a slew of medical problems. Thankful to be alive, Craig still
Spring rains and warmer temps in the south signal Thomasina Pidgeon's annual return to Squamish. For the last decade, the collection of granite eggs stacked beneath the Chief's looming walls have been a touchstone. Each year welcomes a variety
No one is quite sure how the fire above Brittania Beach started, but it revealed a mountain biking playground. In Spring of 2010, Jeremy and Kevin eyed up The Burn and started building trail through the granite out crops and mangled downed logs
Over the last 10 years, Thomasina Pigeon rose to the top of female bouldering. With multiple V12 ascents to her name, she spend most of her life on the road searching out the next project. Her traveling companion and sometimes climbing partner
Kevin Landry and Jeremy Norris both moved west to the mountain biking mecca of Squamish with the same goal in mind -- ride as much as possible and create their own vision of mountain biking. As luck would have it, they would move into home righ
It's been said that stories are like rivers. Bryan and I specialize in following them to their conclusion. We are very proud to present The Season 2. This year we picked five new athletes each with their own unique storyline. An amputee climbe
Rise up. Become legend. Welcome to The Season 2. A 22-episode web TV series following five athletes through the course of a single season. Available first at arcteryx.com and as a download from iTunes. Visit theseasontv.com for more information
That's it. That's all.  After a year of following these athletes, our stories come to a conclusion, but not before Matt gives his year long project one last go and puts a whole lot of faith in the anti-cam.
It's come down to the wire. Matt's foot and ankle took longerthan the expected to heel. He couldn't climb again until this winter, but in his free time he went to work redesigning the anti cam. Now he'sgot three shiny pieces of gear, a
