What We Are Doing in 2024
Saveria with Adventurus Women has a bunch of trips, including the Tour du Mont Blanc at the end of September, and a trip to the Dolomites, AND their first “plus one” trip to Africa.
Jeff is organizing the 10th year for the Six-Pack of Peaks Challenge Series— a series of 17 regional, self-paced, self-guided hiking challenges. Plus he is leading his first big group trip… to Patagonia this March. Plus, getting together with Jason and friends to hike the Timberline Trail this summer.
One of Jason’s big film projects Free Outside is now out to rent and watch on Apple TV, Amazon and elsewhere. Check it out.
Favorite Memories from 2023
For Jason, his highlight was backpacking to Miter Basin with friends (sans Jeff), and he’s looking forward to spending more time on his photography in 2024.
Saveria’s 2023 highlight was her group trip to Africa, where she also leveled-up her camera gear. She’s looking forward to the Tour du Mont Blanc.
Jeff’s highlight? Hiking the 192-mile Coast to Coast Walk across England (with no rain over 17 days!), and he’s looking most forward to Patagonia next.

The Almost There Adventure Podcast is a celebration of outdoor activities both local and epic. Discussing the big topics and talking to adventurers, artists, legends and activists within the outdoor community.
On this episode: sheds, map grids, busking in Spain, and 5-to-9 adventures. We are talking with Alastair Humphreys, named as National Geographic Adventurer of the Year for his work on the concept of microadventures. He’s had some big adventures, too, from cycling completely around the world in four years to canoeing 500 miles down the Yukon River. And along the way, he’s authored 14 books inspiring people to find room for adventure in their daily lives.
The funny thing about going all the way around the world is it makes you realize how little of the world you’ve actually seen.
