Sustainable adventurer Greg Hill chose his own path in life, up and down mountain sides, skiing first descents and exploring the depths of his endurance. Follow along as he shares his moments of learning, how he developed his mantras and learned to push himself. Almost dying made him examine his life and recognize the need to change. Accepting progress over perfection he has been exploring sustainable adventures and learning how to be better. Greg wants us all to look at our lives, imagine them as stories we are reading and make the next chapters the best possible. After Greg Hill found ski mountaineering, he was hooked and hasn’t stopped since. A pro skier, filmmaker and a ski guide with the Association of Canadian Mountain Guides, Hill has made hundreds of first descents and set world records like climbing and skiing over 2 million feet in less than a year and 50,000 feet in 24 hours. But his biggest objectives lately are in his everyday quest to adventure in a more sustainable fashion. Fueled by fortitude, rather than recognition and fame, Hill, a father of two, challenges himself and us all to leave the planet in better shape.
