In the crisp autumn of 2016, Seth and Sudeep began their minimalist adventure, the “Langtang Lollipop” fastpack, right from the doorstep of Kathmandu. They journeyed through the lush forests of Shivapuri National Park, eventually ascending to the grandeur of the Langtang National Park. Nights were spent huddled around smoky fires in yak herder huts, and days were filled with breathtaking Himalayan vistas. It was during one of these contemplative evenings, as they listened to a Radiolab podcast, that the name “Himalayan Adventure Labs” was born.
The name was inspired by their shared passion for exploring the Himalayas and experimenting with new ways to experience the mountains. The ridgeline featured in our new logo pays homage to the Langtang range, a constant backdrop to their adventure. The vibrant orange dot, a remnant of our old logo, symbolizes the warmth and energy that fuels our expeditions.
Special thanks to the team at The Midnight Design for their patience and work in redesigning our logo.
