Big Wall Climbing in the Arctic

HMB Odd Fellows Speaker Series: Gordon Wiltsie

Gordon Wiltsie is an award-winning photographer, writer and explorer who has documented extreme mountaineering, dog sledding, skiing and other expeditions to some of the world’s remotest places. Gordon will speak about big-wall climbing in the arctic, steep and highly technical rock faces that require highly experienced climbers. Big-wall climbing takes more than a single day to ascend and require massive logistical considerations in an extreme Arctic environment.

Is sponsorship and social media pushing adventure athletes to reckless extremes?
