Huge thank you to everyone who has supported us. From grants to letting us sleep on your floor, loaning us gear, watching our dogs, skipping a beer to buy one of our stickers- it takes a village to make our climbing projects possible. We could not have done it without all of you. 

 

Past Grant Awards and Supporters:  American Alpine Club's Live You Dream Grant, American Alpine Club's Mountaineering Fellowship Grant, British Mountaineering Council's Julie Tullis Memorial Award, and NOLS Instructor Development Fund.

 

We were incredibly honored to partner with Sealaska through their philanthropy program for one of our past expeditions. Several of us were born and raised in Southeast Alaska on the ancestral and present-day homelands of the Tlingit people. Here we have become acquainted with the mountains, have gotten to know the land, and have been nourished by a community that Sealaska and its shareholders have been the backbone of. Our gratitude extends beyond words. 

​

Past Organizational and Company Support: Alaska Mountaineering School for loaning us gear and a yurt while we were waiting to fly in to the Alaska Range, UAS Outdoor Studies Program for loaning us gear, Evan from the Firn Line for sharing our story, Wrangell Mountain Center for the beautiful cabin in McCarthy, Alaska Claim Jumpers for the buffs and patches, NOLS Alaska Branch for loaning us gear, Cliff Bar for the donation, SWAK Magazine for outreach help, and all the local shops around Juneau that let us sell our stickers.

Other Thank Yous: Thanks Mark and Margy for letting us take over your house for a few days. It was an amazing base camp! Huge thank you to our parents. Sorry for terrifying you and raising your blood pressure on a regular basis. Also thank you to the rest of our families, friends, significant others and dogs (Gilkey and Bentley).  We try extra hard to come back safe and sound because of all of you. Thanks to our awesome pilots Wally and Zak for getting us there safety. Huge thank you to Roxanne for letting us take over your upstairs when we were weathered-in and for putting up with our smells after the expedition. The showers after the trip before the ferry ride were a game changer.

We love all of you so much. We are not worthy.
