“Today, National Geographic announced its 2018 Adventurers of the Year, an annual list that honors extraordinary achievements in the fields of exploration, adventure sports, conservation and humanitarianism within the past year. This distinguished list includes daring climbers, hardcore ultramarathoners, resilient mountain bikers, inspiring photographers and incredible philanthropists. “Trailblazers” was the guiding theme of this year’s list, meaning each honoree has achieved something unique, groundbreaking and game-changing in his or her field.
