Juice Plus+ is great stuff that I have used through all of my expeditions. What I like about it is that the research behind it is so strong. It is 100% natural, is whole food based, and I love the fact that it provides raw, anti-oxidant fruit and veg in a capsule form. For me it fulfills a key part of my nutrition, training and recovery needs.
I always had a really natural faith as a kid. Where I knew God existed and it felt very free and pretty wild and natural, and it wasn't religious.
Weather can kill you so fast. The first priority of survival is getting protection from the extreme weather.
The appeal of the wild for me is its unpredictability. You have to develop an awareness, react fast, be resourceful and come up with a plan and act on it.
I don't like expeditions where it is a total lottery whether you live or die. You have to keep those sort of good luck cards for rare occasions!
How you speak about others speaks loudest about yourself.
Life has taught me to be very cautious of a man with a dream, especially a man who has teetered on the edge of life. It gives a fire and recklessness inside that is hard to quantify.
Sometimes an ember is all we need.
What Scouting says to people is: Every child has a right to have an adventure. Life is about grabbing opportunities
Survival requires us to leave our prejudices at home. It's about doing whatever it takes - and ultimately those with the biggest heart will win.
You only get one chance at life and you have to grab it boldly.
And Jesus, the heart of the Christian faith is the wildest, most radical guy you'd ever come across.
To me, adventure has always been to me the connections and bounds you create with people when you're there. And you can have that anywhere.
That feeling when you're so cold you'd give anything to be warm - I've had it before, literally huddled around a candle flame on an ice sheet.
