When North Face Founder Doug Tompkins died last December in a kayak in his beloved Patagonia, it was perhaps not the most surprising way for him to go. Tompkins lived an adventurous, tumultuous life.

It all started in 1969 when a group of California friends drove 8,000 miles in a decrepit van from Berkeley to the tip of South America to climb an imposing stone pillar called Fitz Roy.
