    🧭 ABOUT US
    Hi! We are Helen and Tim. We are adventure travelers who saved up some money to travel full-time in Jan 2023. We are based in Portland, Oregon, and have been together for over 10+ years and share a love for the great outdoors through hiking, camping, skiing, and more! We grew up in Dallas, Texas (Helen) & DuBois, Pennsylvania (Tim).
    Our goal is to hike the world one mountain at a time. We love to inspire people to get outdoors no matter if the adventure is big or small. There is so much in the world to see, even if it is in our own backyards. We started filming our adventures in the PNW and that has evolved into filming our international travels.
    Thanks so much for watching! We will see you on the next trail! 🥾

    In 1970 I climbed Mt. Blanc with three Scottish boys. We descended over snow covered glacier than is now bare and totally impassable. Astonishing.

    do we need to do some registration to do hike like yours?

    • @HelenandTimTravel
      @HelenandTimTravel  5 місяців тому

      We didn’t need a permit for either hike ☺️ for Lac Blanc, we did have to pay to take the gondola. There are a few to choose from. Here is more info on one of them
