Welcome!
This is my place for all things wilderness-and-adventure oriented. This includes trip reports, guides, lists of things I want to do, and general commentary on my adventures outdoors.
My name’s Marcus. I live in Calgary, Alberta, right at the foot of the Rocky Mountains. I love writing, mountaineering, and just about everything else outdoors (canoeing, hiking, trail riding, etc). I have a long, long bucket list of things that I want to do, and it keeps getting bigger every day. That’s pretty central to who I am; I love getting excited about things, dreaming of bigger and better adventures so I can live my life to the fullest. I have so much stoke when it comes to things involving the outdoors, and this summer I’m really looking to expand my repertoire of outdoors activities.
When I’m not clinging to the side of a mountain, I like writing (fantasy, adventure, sci-fi), entrepreneurship, and reading, and my dog probably qualifies as my best friend. I’m definitely what you would call a dreamer, and the bigger the dream, the better. I love working towards massive, new things, setting impossible goals, and seeing how far I can push myself.
I created this website so that I can spread knowledge and best practices about the activities that I love to help people be a little bit more safe in the mountains. If you want to collaborate on anything (be it a post, a promotion, or even an adventure if you live in Calgary) please don’t hesitate to get in touch with me!
