Out of Office: Trading Gravel for Glaciers
I'm temporarily swapping drop bars for my Altra Lone Peaks as I head to Chilean Patagonia over the next few days. I'll be visiting my son Zach, who's in his second year working as a wilderness guide and adventure logistics coordinator at Patagonia Frontiers.
Together we'll be backpacking through the breathtaking Aysén region—exploring alpine lakes, vast valleys, temperate forests, and glaciated peaks. I'm beyond excited to experience Patagonia's legendary landscapes for the first time, capture some photos, and spend quality time with my son.
Things will be quiet around here for a few days, but I'll be back soon with new stories, some exciting merchandise drops, and more spring ride announcements.
Important note for webstore orders: Shipments will resume on Tuesday, March 11th. Thanks for your patience!
See you soon! Dave
