Vasque is proud to announce Chris Miller, sales manager for the US, competed and won the Ironman 70.3 Executive Challenge (XC) in Switzerland.

On Saturday June 18, 2011, Vasque Athlete, Duncan Callahan, competed in the San Juan Solstice 50-miler finishing in a very respectable 7th place with a time of 9:54:28. The San Juan Solstice held in the San Juan Mountains of south-central Colorado,is replete with all those adventurous components that go along with a long day in the high mountains: stream crossings, ridge running, mega-altitude, huge views, heat and/or rain, sleet, and snow.

Voluntourism, dedicating your vacation time to volunteer for a worthy cause, is a growing trend because it gives travelers fun and exciting opportunities to give back. Planning your own outdoor service adventure, however, can be time-intensive and expensive, so why not let an organization with over 30 years of experience help you out? American Hiking Society does the trip planning for you, making it easier than ever to take part in budget-friendly Volunteer Vacations, aimed to improve America’s natural landscapes and hiking trails.

Entering exclusive footwear partnerships with Backpacker’s Get Out More Tour and American Hiking Society Volunteer Vacations, Vasque renews its commitment to America’s trails in 2011.
