We are a group of friends who love the outdoors and want very much to see the environment preserved and intact for our kids and their kids.
A “base camp” is a meeting place for the team to gather while organizing an expedition, and that’s exactly what we want to be: a center where travelers and adventurers can find essential information. Use your imagination and you’ll see our triangular-shaped logo represents a mountain. Look closer and you’ll see the curved line at the bottom of the triangle is a domed tent at the foot of the mountain, which is a common sight on every climbing expedition.
