17,000ft scree lines in Bolivia!
This is the culmination of 6 friends jumping on a plane to Bolivia in search of the longest scree runs in the world. TR employee's Hannah Bergemann and Myles Trainer headed to Bolivia with a group of friends for a freeride adventure. The objective was riding scree, but, what they learned along the way about friendship and experiencing a new place to its fullest, held the highest importance.
After countless laps engraved in their minds and a few serious cases of Typhoid, the group walked away with a life changing trip to Bolivia. Be sure to grab the latest issue of Freehub Magazine to get the full story!

The laps ranged from high elevation scree to local trails used to connect the small villages.
17,000ft laps called for plenty of breaks.
The trip started by setting intentions for the riders as well as Pachamama (Mother Earth).
No mercy in the mountains, the weather might change 3 times by the time you throw your jacket on.
The Milluni scree fields tower over the village's cemetery.
Huge thanks to Yannick Wende and Bucketlist Experience for the hospitality and a truly unique experience.
