What does it mean to go into the mountains?

Uphill Athlete founder, Steve House, wrote a number of introspective treatises about what it means emotionally, philosophically, and personally to go into the mountains and endeavor to achieve.

We saw these sentiments as the heart and soul of the Uphill Athlete brand. To build stronger emotional connection and sense of community, we devised a podcast concept, Voice of the Mountains. Each episode explores themes of personal struggle and growth amidst the grandeur of the mountains.
