Expeditions have a long and honorable history of appealing to the generosity of commercial sponsors to make their dreams become reality.

Waterfall Dreaming proudly carries this torch and walks the footsteps of such greats as Sir Ernest Shackleton.

“The Boss” almost had his dreams crushed long before the ice had a chance to crush the “Endurance”, and so it was at the 11^th hour, the wealthy rope maker Sir James Caird came to the financial rescue.

 

Right: Even as a boy, young Sir Ernest showed an obvious affinity to rope.

The evolution of Teva began with an unassuming Grand Canyon River Guide named Mark Thatcher and an idea that would spark the birth of an industry.

On countless river trips it happened, clients wearing water-logged sneakers would be envious of the flip-flops worn by the boaters at that time. However, while the flip-flops were quick drying, they were too flimsy for the rugged terrain of the Canyon. A solution was needed and the sport sandal was born.

And since the inception over 20 years ago, Teva remains committed to both innovation in footwear and the protection of waterways around the world. Step this way ….

In 1966, two hiking enthusiasts founded a small mountaineering retail store in the heart of San Francisco's North Beach. The Company soon became known as The North Face, a retailer of high-performance climbing and backpacking equipment and now also for manufacturing high-performance outerwear, skiwear, sleeping bags, packs, footwear and tents.

And why is the company called The North Face? Because in the Northern Hemisphere, the north face of a mountain is generally the coldest, iciest and most formidable route to climb and the logo was inspired by the Half Dome in Yosemite, revered as one of the greatest big walls in the world.                      Our web face is here
