High Adventure The Adventure Doesn't End When You Become a Dad

Mike Allsop has found a way of incorporating his adventures into family life by taking each of his three children on major one-on-one expeditions. This has led to some incredible challenges. He's trekked over 100 km in the Himalaya with each child at the age of seven, most recently Dylan. Twelve-year-old Maya attempted the world's highest stand-up paddle board on a freezing lake at 5,300 meters. Ethan, at 15 years old, struggled through altitude sickness to reach the summit of Kilimanjaro and set his own world record. The family also fundraised to buy a new house for a Sherpa widow after the devastating earthquake of 2015. The challenges and excitement continue, with the family continually dreaming up new adventures.
