Rick Ridgeway, mountaineerThis week on Adventure Edge Radio, we're featuring an interview with Rick Ridgeway, who was recently inducted into the Adventure Hall of Fame by National Geographic Adventure magazine.

Ridgeway has been a leading mountaineer – he was one of the first Americans to scale K2 - and adventurer for over 35 years. Ridgeway is also the VP of Environmental Programs and Communication for Patagonia, the outdoor gear and clothing company.

Ridgeway and Patagonia have most recently teamed up with Freedom to Roam, an initiative that aims to provide migratory routes for large animals through protected wildlife corridors in the U.S. and Canada. Based on the fact that big animals require hundreds of miles of interconnected, undisturbed habitat in order to thrive, Freedom to Roam has established several large eco-system conservation campaigns on both private and public land. To learn more about Freedom to Roam, visit their website.
