This is Kenya🇰🇪A land we Love❤️ Good Morning ☀️ . . . . People climb mountains for different reasons, inspirations, and motivations. Sometimes our comfort zones do not give us the benefit to search our inner selves and have consultative moments again, with our inner selves. conquering own internal challenges remains one of the primary motivations for mountain climbing, whether that means overcoming fears, pushing your limits, or trying to create a personal best in terms of physical and mental accomplishment. Your reason to climb may not be one the reasons highlighted above but whatever the reason, come with us to the mountain, lets experience the fun together. . . #whyiclimb #landscapephotography #landscape #goodmorning #goodmorningpost #travel #travelphotography #hikinginkenya #hiking #hikingadventures #lake #lakelife #mountains #mountainlife #mountain #agameofstones #picoftheday #instatraveling #instadaily #instatravel #sky #skyphotography #travelpics #igkenya #tembeakenya #backpacking #whyilovekenya #MtKenya https://www.instagram.com/p/CDQW4_IlL0A/?igshid=ode81ea79o5d

Seems that Mother Nature wants to give me a hand in our last couple of weeks of training before leaving to Chile, and exploring #Pantagonia before we we head to #unionglacier with @antarcticlogistics to make our way to #Vinson Massif. Yesterday I got a refresher course with Emmanuel about crevasse rescue... so it’s fitting it snowed today, maybe I will practice ice axe self arrest? #whyiclimb #7summits #leadingchange #peaksforchangefoundation #camh #vinsonmassif #mentalhealthawareness #ptsd #endstigma (at Glen Williams, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/BpcGeE5j74e/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=z2xqvmp1livx

Well with #vinsonmassif around the corner, and then Aconcagua in February, followed by Denali a few months later, God willingly, I was comparing gear lists... hummm.... and last week I ordered a few extra things... essentials... a girl needs choices....and from @arcteryx ...a new warm toque, the FIREBEE AR Hoody, which packs into a small pack of its own, the Gamma MX Hoody as a soft shell and wind barrier layer ( I am a little tired of my current one from @thenorthface . A balaclava, gloves...and I also got odds and ends from @mec , like liner gloves to go with my @redfox_outdoor mittens I had bought in Russia for Elbrus.. a few extra carabiners and a pee bottle... yeah... maybe this will be another post to explain that one! Ethan’s room is again scattered with clothes as I get ready to pack.... #climbing #7summitsformentalhealth #peaksforchangefoundation @alpineascents @antarcticlogistics #whyiclimb #mentalhealthawarenessmonth #mentalillness #camh (at Glen Williams, Ontario) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bouy1AqHQ7u/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=469t2oro0u23

Homes? Structures? Someone designs all of them. Someone builds them. What are the thought processes for them? These are two interesting structures I came across in Mount Elbrus. The first I think was a watch tower, high above at about 11,000 feet. We had a rest break here during an acclimatization hike. And the second is the great thought process of building a toilet at basecamp. @cityscapeone #realestate #realestateagent #torontorealestate #whyiclimb #isellhomes #endstigma #elbrus #mountaineer #alipinista #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealth #hiking #thefutureistigmafree (at Mount Elbrus)
