Pete's life has been defined by teaching, leading and guiding in the alpine environments of this planet. He is happiest on cross country skis, whether skating the tracks or carving a few tele turns in the back country on a blue bird powder day. So you could easily assume that in this conversation he regals the listeners with epic tales of blizzards, frozen extremities and punctured thermarests. Conversely he speaks of beautiful relationships, the power of outdoor learning and the difficulties of managing clients/students in extreme environments. Most recently Pete's snow based adventures have taken him to northern Italy where he guides clients on bespoke cross country ski adventures.

An adventurous life is a gross understatement when listening to the rich stories that have defined the life and work of Foxy. Robyn's early years were defined by whitewater kayaking and sailing excursions in Victoria, whilst still at school. Foxy's passion for whitewater kayaking and rafting continued as a young adult undertaking over thirty multi day trips down the Franklin River in Tasmania, the first as a nineteen year old.

After such an upbringing Robyn was perhaps destined to work in the outdoors, where she could share her passion, deep connection to country and innovative ideas to students and colleagues around the world. So she packed her backpack and headed to Sudan and Thailand where she designed and developed outdoor education programs in international schools.

In this conversation we have the absolute pleasure and privilege of chatting with Bec Fox, a self proclaimed 'wild fox'. Foxy's relationship with the natural world began from very young age, free roaming the family farm which her parents were regenerating. This deep connection to the land led to Bec's love of nature, going ahead and establishing nature camps for city kids from age thirteen.

There was little doubt with this upbringing Bec was destined to work in the outdoors however as she reveals here this path was far from traditional. Foxy shares four decades of tales encompassing : naked solos; leading and mentoring and a deep spiritual connection with the land. Something she delights in sharing with the next generation of Foxy's.
