Yvon Chouinard: Patagonia’s Unlikely Business Guru

Posted May 29, 2012 at 7:14 am · Comments { 4 } ·

As to how the idea for the triple link-up came about:

You do one route and you have a lot of time left in the day and you think, “Oh maybe we should have done two.” And eventually you do two with time left over and you say, “maybe we could do three…” and we did three and we didn’t have any time left over so we said, “we’re over it.
