Thank you, Barry, for reminding us just how special the climbing community is 🧗🫶

We hosted legendary alpinist and Patagonia Ambassador Barry Blanchard at Neptune Mountaineering this past weekend.

He discussed building a life around climbing, his fondest ascents, working in Hollywood, his new book, maintaining a deep connection with nature, his family, aging with grace, and so much more. Needless to say, it was a packed evening in all the best ways.

Thank you to Patagonia for partnering with us on this event, keeping us well-fed, and helping us gather our community together. Like Barry, we love a chance to make new friends and get reacquainted with older ones 🙌

Here’s to making those big mountain dreams a reality! 🏔️🙌

We hung out with Golden Mountain Guides last night to discuss planning, training, and prepping for an expedition—whether it’s Denali, Aconcagua, or something closer to home.

If you’ve set your sights on a big mountain objective, Neptune Mountaineering and Golden Mountain Guides can provide the gear and the knowledge to get there. After all, no one summits alone 💪

Patagonia Ambassador and legendary Canadian alpinist Barry Blanchard is coming to Neptune!

Join us next Saturday for an evening with Barry and his new book, The Echo: Stories from the Edge of Survival. The Echo takes readers to the thin places where weather, determination, skill, and luck decide everything—and the consequences can echo for years.

📣 Presentation from Barry
🙋 Q&A
📖 Book Signing
🍻 Free Snacks & Drinks

From the punk rock years of pure alpinism and the strange theater of Hollywood rigging on Cliffhanger to the space left behind by lost partners and the realities of aging, Barry’s insight isn’t something to miss.
