About the Event

We invite you to be a part of something bigger than yourself. Freedom Fighters are a community of people passionate about ending human exploitation through prevention, response, and recovery. By joining the Expedition RISE Maroon Bells , YOU are a part of making someone’s freedom story possible.

Together, the Maroon Bells team will train for 5 months, the team collectively will fundraise $30,000*, and trek approximately 28 miles in 2 days. Supported by experienced team leadership, you will receive resources and encouragement through your personal training and fundraising experience.

Freedom Fighters will trek through the Maroon Bells - Snow Mass Wilderness in Colorado in recognition of the ability we have to RISE and make a difference in human exploitation. The team will hike from Aspen to Crested Butte on July 20th 2026, and will hike back to Aspen on July 21, 2026.

Each participant is expected to raise a minimum of $1,500.
