Fear and risk, adventure, Kilimanjaro, Elbrus, Aconcagua, the Sacred Mountain, the Alps, Scotland, and we still found time to discuss our 'why's and our ambitions for the outdoors!

https://linktr.ee/betweenthemountains  In this episode, I go over my recent trip to Georgia to climb Mount Kazbek day by day. It's just impossible to include every detail and even when editing I remembered bits that would have been fantastic to include. But tomorrow I'll remember even more.  I also cut in segments from interviews I did with three of the people from the trip.  I hope you enjoy it!  ------------------------------------------- If you enjoy the show please: Subscribe/follow so that you don’t miss another episode; Share with a friend;  Leave a rating on iTunes; and Leave a rating on Spotify (press the three dots).
