While conceptualizing how we wanted to bring this deep and captivating Klein Blue colour to our community we sought to simply break free from the colour black. Set against the backdrop of North Vancouver's Mount Seymour we climbed for hours outfitted in The North Face's Summit Series™ IKB Athlete collection and with the grip of the Summit VECTIV Pro 2 and breathability of key top and bottom pieces such as the Summit High Trail S/S and Summit Pacesetter Short we stayed locked in and dry in the searing heat of a midday summer.

After a full day exploring Pump Peak and the trails around Mount Seymour we carried on West to finish the day off in the trees of Hyannis, finally cooling off after a day of draining fluids from the Summit Run Race Day Vest 8. As quickly as the heat rose earlier in the day we found ourselves bathing in the cool air relief of Lynn Valley, switching gears into the Summit Superior Futurelight Jacket and Summit Altimetro Lt Crew for some final km's on our way to sharing stories of the days adventure over a well-earned North Shore meal.
