Last fall, a team of five North Face athletes traveled to a remote region of India known as the Baspa Valley. There, they not only found plenty of difficult routes to test their skills on, they encountered some of the most spectacular scenery you could ever hope to see. But the expedition was far from an easy stroll into the mountains, but instead presented the team with some very unexpected challenges, not the least of which was crazy weather. In this video, you’ll join that team on this journey, and get a behind the scenes look at what a fast, talented, and driven team can accomplish, even when they don’t necessarily have an agenda.
