“It's not about these summits, it's about these experiences in the mountains with my friends and communities, having conversations about what it feels like to be a minority in the mountains…” Last winter, Vasu Sojitra and his two friends Emilé Zynobia and Zahan Billimoria set out to ski Mt. Moran-in the process, reshaped the conversation around disability in the outdoors.

"Just want to create a table that makes it feel like we belong, so we don't have to be inspirational for just the status quo that's not used to seeing someone like us out here." -- what an incredibly articulate and impactful way to frame his goals. Thank you North Face for such a wonderful film.

Almost pro cyclist... Had an accident, I'm in recovery and it's been step-step, piece by piece, brick by brick. This is just me but "Conversations with God" just like Neal Walsh and my journey has been the most memorable OFF TO THE SIDE OF LIFE route :) I've ever experienced. But thank you for this ... I'll put it on my tool box of life. :) Kind regards.

Be kind to yourself. Love yourself. (Yes, it can be hard.) Remember that it is easier and more satisfying to decide who you want to, and need to, be and to work to become that person instead of merely "recovering". You CAN do it.

Vasu is a savage. 4k+ vertical climbing. I cannot even imagine the core and arm strength that would take. Then ski down it after. Sick video

All disabilities are different. All people with Disabilities are different. But one thing isn't different: We all share the same craving to live-those of us with disabilities included.

Using the growing optics of social media, and the platform of a company like TNF to tell larger, greater stories is something we can all appreciate!

During a walk on 5th avenue New York I saw pics of you in the shop window of a Northface store at the first time and the positive energy coming therefrom really touched me. I was now lucky to find your story on RU-vid. You are a great inspiration in my life and I wish you all the best for your coming adventures.
