“Nobody ever died wishing they had spent more time behind a desk.”

Last year, Arc Teryx, our friends from the north sent Katie Bono down to instruct and present.  This year Will Gadd will be making a return to the Michigan Ice Fest scene teaching classes and presenting on his latest adventures!

Will Gadd is one of the top outdoor adventure athletes in the world (Outside, Men’s Journal and Explore.). Will is best known for wild outdoor adventures in multiple different sports, but he’s most proud of his ability to complete those adventures safely and share them with others. He has appeared in, hosted or produced more than 100 global television projects. He is an award-winning writer (New York Times, Men’s Journal, etc.), film maker, and dad. His book on ice climbing is the top publication in its field, and has been translated into five languages. Gadd’s presentations on “Risk and Reward” and related topics take him all over the world to speak to audiences ranging from Nike and Enbridge to at-risk youth . He is a National Geographic ” Adventurer of the year” and recently became the first person to climb a frozen Niagara Falls.  He is an ACMG guide.

Thanks Arc Teryx!
