Hidden Earth 2026
A Tale of Two Rescues
60 minute Lecture|Rostam Namaghi
Abstract
After a caving career spanning over 17 years, 1200 trips and 19 formal expeditions this colossal pillock got in 2 rescues in the space of 6 months.
Deliverance from Providence and the Escape from Elysium provide the perfect keys to staying humble, learning from mistakes and shredding egos. All while respecting the adventure our sport can deliver.
Heckling encouraged.
