When it comes to adventure travel, who decides who gets to go on physically demanding trips? In our latest Darby Edit, guest blogger Cassandra Brooklyn explores why there’s a constant tightrope walk between safety and profitability when it comes to guided hikes. She digs into how tour operators can do a better job of preparing clients for what’s ahead and shares tips on how anyone (from avid dog walkers to seasoned mountain athletes) can train for an epic adventure.

More often than not, our clients' brand personas look suspiciously like someone sitting in our office. Together, we form a small ecosystem of outdoor consumers who’ve spent an embarrassing amount of money on gear.

That got us thinking... what if we actually modeled personas based on survey data we collect about ourselves?
