Expedition mountaineering with combat-wounded veterans — seven summits and other major peaks, one-on-one climbing partnerships.
Expedition mountaineering with combat-wounded veterans — seven summits and other major peaks, one-on-one climbing partnerships.
The Heroes Project pairs combat-wounded veterans with experienced mountaineers for long-form training and expedition climbs of major peaks. Past expeditions include Mount Kilimanjaro, Aconcagua, Denali, Mount Vinson, and Carstensz Pyramid. Training is year-round; veterans are matched with a dedicated climbing partner and prepare together for an extended period before the expedition. All program costs are covered.
