#Throwback to organising this epic expedition for the late great @hilareenelson ❤️ Forever in our hearts.
Posted @withregram • @hilareenelson Please check out this trailer to a 14 minute film directed by @bclarkmtn about Papsura, aka Peak of Evil.
.
I obsessed over this line for nearly two decades and finally, in 2017 with @jimwmorrison and @jxnfigs, we successfully climbed and skied this 21,165 foot behemoth. The full short film, “The Line Between Good and Evil”, is premiering today at Aspen Mountain Film Festival’s “An Evening of Adventure” hosted by @jenpharrdavis.

Thanks to everyone who helped support this expedition. I’m so excited to see our footage together in one place.

Posted @withregram • @patagonia_snow Tucked deep in the Indian Himalaya is a towering summit called Papsura, the face of which is split by a line so perfect and massive it pushed the skills of even the most renowned ski mountaineers. Papsura: Peak of Evil follows professional snowboarders Nick Russell and Jerry Mark to this remote corner of the world’s greatest mountain range, as they harness years of experience in pursuit of the biggest line of their lives.
Ibex is proud to have provided logistical support for this epic expedition!
Our limited edition journey to the #Arctic is back! Join us in stunning #Svalbard this summer. Reach out for more info!
A snippet from our amazing trans #Himalayan overland jeep safari from earlier this summer. We drove through the landscapes of #Draas, #Kargil, #Suru and #Zanskar—all while tracking bears, exploring villages, hiking mountains, and staying in stunning camps along the way. We experienced the other side of #Ladakh, finishing up in the beautiful #Kullu valley of #Himachal Pradesh. Reach out to us if you’d like to embark on this epic expedition too!

Throwback to this epic trip organized by Ibex! Posted @withregram • @mountainworld When @pedromcbride, @davidcmorton and I set off 7 years ago to follow the Ganges River 1600 miles from source-to-sea, we knew it was going to be an epic, difficult, physically and mentally draining expedition and adventure. It turned out to be more than we anticipated, a 45 day journey of beauty and tragedy, of the power of nature to create... and the power of humanity to destroy. The Ganges, and the myriad souls we met along the way, taught us about this holiest of holy rivers, about its dichotomous nature being at once both revered and reviled, and, ultimately, about hope: the hope borne of a love so intense it has nearly destroyed its focal point, and the same love that may well be its only salvation. Here’s a 1 minute journey down Ma Ganga cut from the film @pedromcbride and I made, Holy (un)Holy River, which, for those without amazonprimevideo or those in India and elsewhere that Amazon won’t distribute to, is now available for rent or purchase on @vimeo - link in profile and here: http://bit.ly/HolyUnHoly

PAPSURA, 21,165 feet, the legendary Peak of Evil, was climbed for the first time on June 3, 1967, by Geoffrey Hill and Colin Pritchard in a bold and final sortie of a month-old expedition, which turned defeat into victory.
In May 2024, 4 friends came together to attempt climbing it and snow board the descent. They were successful! 15 May 2024 was “The Line of our lives”.
@ ibexexpeditions worked tirelessly on the logistical arrangements and assisting in paper work to ensure a smooth expedition.

Landing in #Longyearbyen—the world’s northernmost settlement within the #Norwegian archipelago of #Svalbard (78 Degrees North). Come join us on our epic #Arctic expedition in 2024 as we do it all over again—we’ll sail around the archipelago on a small expedition ship, learn from climate experts, go hiking and snowshoeing, spot polar bears 🐻❄️ and do polar plunges! Few spots left—DM us or reach out on our website.
