21.01.2022 When I first laid eyes on Watsons Crags I was pretty blown away that Australia had mountains like that - and that there were lines in it. Hank Bilous, described affectionately by Tim Macartney-snape as the kid at the back of the bus, brings a contagious energy to his skiing. He describes his goal in skiing as achieving a kind of aggressive elegance and he nails this in resort, in the backcountry and competing on the Freeride World Tour. To see Hank tackle big lines in ...the Snowy Mountains, tune in to the digital premiere of #WesternFacesFilm tonight at 6pm AEST, find out more here: The North Face presents: Western Faces Photos by Mark Clinton

20.01.2022 He has done it. UTMB reigning champion Pau Capell has completed the iconic Tour du Mont-Blanc (TMB) course, running solo with a time of 21hr 17min 18sec. Running without the presence of competitors, the 2019 UTMB winner felt compelled to take on the course and inspire all those who continue to face challenges in this difficult year, including all those runners who were unable to take part. Considered as one of the most challenging and prestigious trails in the world, the trai...l consists of a gruelling 171km and 10,000 metres of elevation gain, taking in some of the most breath-taking parts of the Alps and crossing France, Italy and Switzerland in the process. Competing alone, with just a tiny support crew of his close team ensured the health and safety of others, but also made this run as much a mental as physical challenge and required all of Paus strength and expert preparation, right down to the smallest of details.

19.01.2022 Its happening. At 10AM MST Pau Capell left the start line and took his first steps towards history, embarking on an epic attempt to complete Chamonixs world-famous 171km Tour du Mont-Blanc ultramarathon in under 20 hours. YEPA, Pau!

16.01.2022 Normal for me had become somewhat of a routine existence. I had no idea how regimented I had become until I was forced to change my lifestyle by the turmoil in the world around me. No longer did I have the freedom to run where and when I liked. And no longer was it all about me. I had to consider the wider implications of the potential that maybe I could get sick from someone I ran by on a trail or in the city. Or worse still, I could possibly make others ill without even kn...owing it. I had lost sight of just how social a sport running can be. While racing is largely an individual pursuit, there’s a massive community of likeminded people that I would regularly be in contact with. I had come to rely on them for not only some human interaction, but as motivators on those tough days when it’s a challenge to find the drive to train. I never really understood just how huge a role they played in my journey. In many ways, the limitations created by the pandemic have liberated me. The self-imposed routine that made me somewhat inflexible in my approach to training, has been replaced with a desire to try new things and mix it up a little. Now, my appreciation for the friends I share the journey with has only grown stronger. I pledge to share my passion for trail running with others, and showing my appreciation for their company.

14.01.2022 By the time we had reception and could see the severity of the storm, with the size of the camp and the equipment that we had there, to get everything out wasnt an option.

06.01.2022 Mount Aspiring sits at 3033m and its on the list of peaks to climb for many. The North-West ridge is a great ski - if the conditions are on. It starts in earnest at 368m in altitude. The first steps of the 67km round trip are not familiar places for ski boots and skis, avoiding cow-pats and crossing rivers. A heavy hoar-frost covering the river banks ensures numb feet for the walk.... Reaching the top of the Quaterdeck on the Bonar Glacier marks a milestone with Mount Aspiring in sight. Putting the skis to work, Mt French to the north is a good side objective to refresh the motivation levels and remind us that carrying all that weight of skis and ski-boots was all worthwhile. On the last part of the climb and short of breath, altitude seems to sap the last of the energy reserved for the final push. The snow conditions are horrible as marks of the westerly winds are clearly visible. Rime has formed into icy ball-bearings which break under our weight and sections of blue ice threaten to send you off the ridge and into oblivion. The summit is a welcome refuge to re-centre. With skis fixed were ready. The line below us. Adrenaline starting to show its signs. We push-off and start the long journey back to river crossings, cow pats and a cold beer." -Words by Fraser McDougall Photos by @charliemurray
