How Urban Training and Creative Resource Sharing can Shape the Future of Outdoor Adventure: Rachel Fagiano's Story

Think you need alpine access, fancy gear, or a mountain town zip code to train for a major expedition? Think again.

Rachel Fagiano is an avid hiker, mountaineer, rock climber and ice climber based in New York City.

They have a career background in racial justice, and now their work focuses on creating safe and welcoming environments and improving access to the outdoors for communities that have been traditionally excluded in those spaces.

The mental edge urban training built for high-altitude expeditions
Why they turned their Aconcagua expedition into a catalyst for career change
How they’re now guiding across the U.S. and helping diversify the outdoor industry
Tangible ways to practice resource and power sharing, no matter your location or means
