Description
Episode Date: September 21, 2018 Adventurer: Neil Ferguson Location: White Mountains, New Hampshire, USA Description:  “It’s a journey, you know, each mountain is a journey. I think maybe I’ve transitioned from (from the first few I’ve climbed) always being about the destination and getting to the top – getting to the views at the top. I think now I am more enjoying the entire adventure on the entire way up.” – Neil Ferguson In Episode 4, I interviewed a great friend Neil Ferguson while on a trip to the White Mountains in New Hampshire. Always down for adventure, Neil’s desire for mountains continues to grow. In this episode, we talk about: 1. Neil’s 1st big mountain experience in the Rocky Mountains. 2. The importance of spontaneity on adventures. 3. Backcountry stupidity (on our part) and what happened when we went to take a dip in Glacier Lake in Banff, National Park, Alberta, Canada. 4. The importance, pros, and cons of social media as it relates to adventures. 5. What Neil would say to anyone contemplating trying mountains for the first time. Super exited about this episode!
