We are super excited to announce that I-MAC, in collaboration with The Rock Climbing Guide, REI, McCurley Subaru, and the Rock Shop, have booked a big time speaker for the Tri-Cities. Mark Smiley will be speaking at the Uptown Theater on February 4th. Doors and Bar open at 6pm for a meet-and-greet with Mark and then he begins his presentation at 7pm.

Mark and his wife Janelle have climbed all (yes, all!) of the 50 Classic Climbs of North America. In 2018, Mark and Janelle set a new time record for the Trans Alps Ski Traverse, a 1069 mile ski tour across the entire Alps mountain range from Austria to France, which took them 36 days to complete. By doing so, Janelle became the first and only woman to ski tour across the Alps. Mark also enjoys ice climbing and snow skiing huge lines! Mark and his wife moved from Jackson, Wyoming to Revelstoke, Canada where he currently works as a mountain guide.

It will be a real treat to host this high profile speaker in Tri-cities, so please spread the word and we’ll see you there!
