Secret Compass

Our expedition organiser, Secret Compass, is world-renowned for creating pioneering experiences in some of the world’s most challenging environments.

With a background in organising complex TV and film productions as well as running bold, off-the-beaten-track expeditions, the team at Secret Compass were the ideal partners to bring Everest in the Alps to life. Managing Director and Co-founder Tom Bodkin, a passionate ski tourer, led our very first ascent – and has been with us on every one since.

Secret Compass is driven by teamwork and inspired by the spirit of exploration. They recognised our determination to attempt something extraordinary, and we were equally inspired by their energy and commitment to making it possible. Their expertise in shaping that very first challenge was critical to its success, and we’re delighted to continue working with them.

Beyond pioneering our route and handling the many logistical details, Secret Compass also provides Everest in the Alps with expert risk management and medical support – ensuring our teams can focus on the climb itself.
