Adventure Travel Trade Association
The Adventure Travel Trade Association is a vital leadership voice and partner for the adventure travel industry around the world. Their mission is to empower the global travel community to protect natural and cultural capital while creating economic value that benefits both trade members and destinations. While any type of tourism significantly impacts the economic well being of people and the environment, adventure tourism is even more dependent than other forms of tourism on human and nature capital. ATTA believes that the protection and thoughtful promotion of these resources is crucial not just for adventure travel’s continued success but for the social, cultural and environmental integrity of any destination. Traverse is proud to be a member of their community!

unbound merino
Unbound Merino was created by three lifelong friends obsessed with travel. The more they traveled, the more they realized that to truly travel freely, you have to travel light. This superfine wool clothing is the product of this desire to travel light, as it can be worn for weeks without ever needing to be washed — so you can travel anywhere, for any length of time, with nothing more than a small carry-on. And when you pack less, you’re able to get more out of your travel experiences.
FOR TRAVELERS. BY TRAVELERS.
