Expeditions on Mt. Pisco

Mt. Pisco, Peru
I recently had the opportunity to review and utilize the Expedition 6000 boot while on a summit bid of Mt. Pisco in Peru. 

I was really impressed! They were warm, super comfortable, durable and fit great. The workmanship is top notch and the features allow you to use this boot in a variety of terrain and conditions. As a mountain guide, I can appreciate a good boot and Lowa seems to have figured this out.

Touring The Haute Route, Zermatt to Chamonix

Image
Tete Blanche, Walliser Alps, Switzerland
The crossing of the Walliser Alps, from the Matterhorn to the Mont-Blanc, is an epic adventure. Beyond our backcountry skiing ability but too good an opp to turn down!

While technically, the Haute Route is not difficult, brutal 4 to 6 hour climbs take a lot out of you. Go in April or May, when the days are longer, so you have the extra time to rest your legs before these epic descents. Because that's where the big fun begins.

Seven unforgettable days, breath taking views and pristine powder as we tackle the ups and downs to Chamonix: 
Day 1: Make the 90 minute climb up to the Britannia hut 9,900 feet.Day 2: From the Britannia hut we make the 5 hour climb up to the Adler pass. Skiing the steeps down to Zermatt.Day 3: Hop on a cable car in Zermatt (5300 feet) with the cable-car to the Klein-Matterhorn (12,600 feet.) Head up to Breithorn (13,745 feet.) Lock in your skis and drop down to Schwarzsee (8,525 feet.) Finish the day with a 2-hour climb…

'Round the World in my LOWA Boots

Image
I've been on 6 continents and in more than 25 countries for both business and pleasure.


My job as a Marketing Manager at Cisco Systems takes me places. And, so do my Lowa Renegades.


I'm also a professional photographer and avid traveler.


My trips have taken me from the Amazon Jungle to the Great Wall of China. From Botswana to the Galapagos Islands. Through the streets of Sydney, Prague and more.


Wherever I go, I'm carrying a camera and wearing my Lowa Renegades.

From the moment I laced them up, they fit perfectly. I've used them for backpacking, hiking, and simple city walking. Together, we've endured floods, mud, baking heat, and freezing cold.


On many of my trips I traveled alone, so I used my Renegades as the subject in my photos. After the first shot at the Great Wall in China, I decided to continue the series and shoot my boots wherever we went.


The pictures eventually made it back to the Lowa team in Connecticut where they can still be seen in …

Zephyr Deserts in Afghanistan

Image
Dear LOWA;

I purchased a pair of Lowa Zephyr Desert boots when I learned my unit was going to Afghanistan.

After walking over 450 kilometers through the rugged terrain consisting of rock, wadi lines that soaked our boots daily, and desert with thorny bushes, I discovered that my boots had finally started to wear out.

They lasted longer than other boots I have owned and I plan to get another pair soon.

Even though they are rotting from constant immersion in mud and water they are still comfortable.

Thank you for making such a quality product.
