Big World

A paddle-board journey down a remote stretch of river in Western Nepal isn’t a typical spring break trip for a kid. But that’s exactly what climbing guide David Morton sets out to do with his 7-year-old son, Thorne, in the spring of 2018. Through long stretches of flat-water, cliff jumping, broken fins and occasional rapids, what unfolds offers proof that even in today’s hyper-digital world, it’s possible to foster wildness in our kids.
