Skip & Chip's Excellent Adventures started in 2012 with the summit of Mount Whitney. This series has evolved into an annual traverse of North America's most challenging and beautiful terrain. Our alumni have completed missions in rugged endurance, from the iconic Cactus-to-Clouds to the Four Pass Loop, and beyond.
We are a community of financial services professionals who are also dedicated, prepared adventurers who answer the call of the mountains on the first Weekend in August and beyond.
