For the local Southern Californians…have you seen the movie 180 Degrees South yet?
I saw the film and published a review when I saw it earlier this summer, and I would definitely recommend it! Now the Patagonia Santa Monica store is offering a free screening.
180° South explores this philosophy of simplifying our lives to further the world. It is a captivating and eye opening film, filled with adventure, surfing, rock climbing, mountaineering, and most importantly, a message about the future of our planet.

I always get hungry when I hike. Perhaps that is because the average person burns 408 calories per hour when they hike!
