This is NOT a retreat.
Too many men feel something’s off.
For most, the truth is simple: they’re UNDER-CHALLENGED..
There’s no yoga by the beach, no smoothie bar at the end.
You won’t be coddled. You won’t be yelled at.
And you won’t know the plan, because the point is to navigate the unknown.
You’ll face the ELEMENTS, your FEARS, and the TRUTH about who you are.
What Awaits You:
Imagine a mix of:
- → Isolation
- → Survival skills
- → Extreme sports
- → Wilderness navigation
What it’s not:
- → Not a retreat
- → Not military roleplay
- → Not a place for complainers
- → Not about doing dumb stuff to prove you’re “tough”

FAQ
WHAT EXACTLY IS THE EXPEDITION?
It’s a 6 to 8-day wilderness challenge designed to push you physically, mentally, and emotionally. You’ll hike, navigate, build fire, carry weight, and face unpredictable conditions, with a brotherhood of men who refuse to live soft.
Expect early starts, long hikes, physical and mental challenges, raw conversations, and a lot of time away from comfort. It’s simple living, full intensity.
WHO IS THIS EXPERIENCE SUITABLE FOR?
It is perfect for adventurous men (25-55 years old) who are eager to push their boundaries and step up into a new version of themselves.
WHAT TYPES OF OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES ARE INCLUDED?
Hiking, rock climbing, rafting, team challenges, survival lessons, and more. You might climb, crawl, run, swim, jump… (we intentionally don’t reveal exactly what it will be, it’s part of the experience!). Each expedition is different; sometimes we only hike, sometimes we have surprise activities.
WHAT GEAR DO I NEED TO BRING?
Once accepted, you’ll receive a full gear list. You’ve likely got some of it, but expect to bring things like a tent, sleeping bag, mat, etc.
HOW MUCH EXPERIENCE AND PHYSICAL FITNESS DO I NEED TO HAVE?
You don’t need any previous experience or special skills. But you need to be in good physical shape and have a willingness to push yourself.
IS THIS SAFE?
It’s demanding, but not reckless. I run a tight ship with clear safety protocols, satellite tracking, and emergency extraction (search and rescue services included).
WHAT IF I CAN’T KEEP UP?
Then you lied on your application and didn’t take the prep seriously.
But if you showed up honest and did the work, you’ll be ready.
This isn’t about being the fastest or strongest; it’s about refusing to quit.
You’re not expected to be a Navy SEAL, but you are expected to bring grit, discipline, and the will to suffer a little.
You’re not alone out there. You’ll be with a crew of men who’ve got your back, and expect you to have theirs.
No one gets left behind. But no one gets carried either. Brotherhood means we push each other, and we finish together.
WHAT IF I INJURE MYSELF?
We train hard, but we don’t play stupid. Every expedition includes a certified Wilderness First Responder, basic medical gear, and a clear emergency protocol. In case of serious injury, we’re backed by a 24/7 global search and rescue service.
