Keeping active and having fun with good friends is an essential part of life.
I am so fortunate to hang out with a group of adventurous women who enjoy physically challenging activities. These ladies embrace the outdoors– even in cold climates — through hiking, biking and skiing.
The activities are not only fun but contribute to our positive physical and mental health (not to mention good looks).
The group photo taken on a mountain top illustrates the personal pleasure and rewards of an extreme climb.
Playing outdoors at any age is not fun when you are cold and wet. Icebreaker clothing has been a good choice as it is attractive, comfortable and helps to keep you warm and dry.

Although every day is effectively Earth Day, the flock from our US office and Icebreaker Touch_Lab store in Portland went for a lunchtime hike in Forest Park to celebrate Earth Day 2009.
We are keen on reducing our carbon footprint, so everyone (including two four-legged friends) piled into Pdx PediCabs and headed to the park where we met Stephen Hatfield, from the Forest Park Conservancy (FPC).
The FPC is all about protecting the precious piece of earth known as Forest Park, and with Icebreaker merino garments being renewable, sustainable, biodegradable and gentle on the environment, it was a great fit. We enjoyed a fabulous hike up to the historic Stone House in Forest Park, taking in the beautiful surroundings.

To show continued support for the FPC, 10% of all Earth Day sales from the Icebreaker Touch_Lab_ store were donated to the Forest Park Conservancy Fund.
