Eve MacCallum shares lessons learned from her first expedition to Greenland.
Last autumn, I returned from a trip to East Greenland with my partner Harry and our friend Ollie, where we spent a month putting up new routes, summitting unclimbed peaks, and eating a lot of fish. I thought that exploring one-thousand-metre-high faces - devoid of any previously climbed lines - in stunning, remote landscapes was exclusively for strong climbers with big sponsorship deals. I proved myself wrong.
This article is a guide on how to plan your first expedition: from the moment of conception, to the moment you leave all the preparation behind and step out of your front door. I'll cover how to choose a location, find mountaineering objectives, form a team, write an expedition proposal, apply for funding and sponsorship, and figure out logistics.
