Big Mountain Training

Training For Kilimanjaro

Another great action shot surfaced from our recent trip to Nepal to climb Larkya Peak. Most Guided Himalayan climbing uses this simple "Korean Rope" which is set up by Sherpas as a safety line in 200 m coils. It frays pretty quickly and freezes junmars which is great fun with gloves on! Good times in the hills 🗻👍

I tell myself this every day. Doesn't matter whether it's the next step in the mountains, the next few reps, the next move on a climb or a tough week in business. Belief must be the seed, nothing happens without it. Then- get it done. alright! #bosslife

People often ask me, why do you need to prepare for a trek? It's just walking? I suppose the most obvious answer to that is that you prepare for the worst, or in this case, the best! Check out this winter wonderland from our recent trip to Nepal. But...Hiking through snow ain't easy Check out or mountain specific Training options -----------> 👀Link in Bio

Best use of Base Camp company property this weekend was a slack-lining anchor point at my favourite a super secret camping spot. Hope ya'll had a kick ass weekend full of adventure ;)

If that doesn't inspire you, I'm sorry I just can't help you. #climbspo #adventure

Remember team, you don't get stronger when you train, you get stronger when you rest! (at Base Camp Training)

"You can't out train a bad diet" Truer words were never spoken! Eating right is a huge part of preparation for the mountains. This 5 minute 4 ingredient salad will rock your world and boost your energy, so dig in! 1. Quinoa 2. Mandarin 3. Dried apricot 4. Mint It's as simple as that! No dressing required, the citrus from the mandarin takes care of that!

Our team are all safe and on the way home! The upper slopes were riddled with hanging glaciers after an intense El Niño weather pattern in the Indian subcontinent, which unfortunately meant we didn't tag the summit. But the experience and challenge will be invaluable to these climbers! Stay tuned for some more epic shots! #larkyapeak #conqueryourself

The first few images of our team on Larkya Peak are coming back, looks like some gnarly glacier action after a couple of seasons on serious snow. What an amazing landscape!

Our next Mt Barney Adventure Weekend is coming up on December 5th & 6th. Be guided and instructed by local experts and get to know this beautiful mountain like it’s your backyard! _____________________________ Visit: www.basecampfit.com for more info!

Finally we’ve heard good news from our Larkya Peak expedition team last night. All the crew are alive and well and coming down the mountain. We should see some pics in a few days! stay tuned! #larkyapeak #conqueryourself #basecampfit

Nothing is quite as good as a relaxing afternoon at 6000m above sea level when the sun is shining! Looking back at this makes me think it might be time to start planning another mountain adventure. 🗻 Got any suggestions???
