Ep. 101 Brody Leven and Kelly Halpin
Brody Leven is a professional adventure skier who prefers climbing up to skiing down. His ski and biking adventures have taken him all over the world, from Uganda to New Zealand, from Svalbard to Argentina, and all over the North American continent. Brody cares deeply for the terrain and environment where he practices his craft and spends half of his time working to protect public land and the environment. He addresses Congress on these subjects each year, attended the Paris Climate Conference (COP21) in 2015, and generously donates time to Protect Our Winters, among other organizations.
Kelly Halpin returns to the podcast, previously joining us for episode 79. She is an illustrator who contributed to the NonProphet Strength manual and an accomplished mountain athlete. In 2019 she completed the Wasatch Ultimate Ridge Link-up in 23hrs 44min (solo), set the FKT on the Teton Crest Trail in 9hrs 11min (with Fred Most), and later, also with Fred, pioneered the Teton Center Punch Traverse, which follows the hydrographic crest of the Teton Range, in 43hrs 29min.
