The Aroka Project featured in "Expedition to the Edge"


We are very honoured that The Mountain Movement, and more specifically, Paul's walk across the South Island of New Zealand in Winter '07, has been featured in a book called "Expedition to the Edge: Stories of Worldwide Adventure." Author Lynn Martel first wrote about The Aroka Project for the Rocky Mountain Outlook and decided to include her story in her book, which was just released by Rocky Mountain Books (pages 290-294, photo on page 299).

The book will also be featured at the Banff Mountain Book Festival this year. A special thanks to Lynn for her dedication to mountain culture and bringing our stories of adventure to life!

Event Overview

This website is an archive of The Aroka Project, a 1488 km trek across the South Island of New Zealand to raise awareness and funds for HIV/AIDS. The Aroka Project was an event organized by The Mountain Movement, an HIV/AIDS campaign based in the Canadian Rockies that seeks to mobilize and inspire people to take action for the cause. If you are interested in contacting the event organizers, please send an email to Meghan and Paul at mountainmovement[at]hotmail.com, and we will be happy to answer any questions you might have.
