Travel video news

As we steam straight on towards the start of the 2018-2019 Antarctic ski and climbing season, this video takes us back to last year when a team of North Face climbers traveled down to Queen Maud Land to make some first ascents on several rock walls and snowcapped peaks. TNF has slowly been releasing short teaser videos about this expedition and today they bring us one that shows just how difficult and demanding the weather conditions there can be. Climbing in the Antarctic isn't easy, even for the likes of Conrad Anker , Jimmy Chin , and Alex Honnold .

The North Face continues its series of videos about the team of climbers that went to the Antarctic last year with another short, but sweet, clip giving us a glimpse of their experience. This time out, we get a sense of the awe and wonder they felt in this expansive place, far from civilization, and about as remote and wild as you can get on our planet. The sense of scale is incredible, even in the short clip. Most of these videos are just a tease for what will likely be a much longer documentary, but they are still wonderful to watch. Check it out below.

Last year, The North Face sent a team consisting of the world's top climbers �� including Jimmy Chin , Conrad Anker , and Alex Honnold �� down to Antartica for an expedition. The group managed to notch 15 summits on an array of peaks found in Queen Maud Land, including some first ascents. Now, the company is releasing a series of videos that bring some insights into what this expedition was like, the first of which you can find below. The first video serves as a teaser of sorts, showing off the team and the landscapes that they're dealing with. This being Antarctica, things are cold, harsh, and unforgiving. Still, these are six of the best mountaineers and rock climbers on the planet, so they're ready to go. The second video gives us some insights from TNF athlete Savannah Cummins , who describes what it was like for her to travel to the Antarctic to climb as part of this team. To say she was a bit nervous visiting such a remote and wild place would be an understatement.
