Additionally, three sections of 16-page, full-color photo spreads reveal each of the mountaineers in their element.Doors will open at 7:00 p.m. for a showtime of 7:30 p.m. Books will be on sale before the presentation, with a book signing immediately following.The Nelson Adventure Speaker Series (NASS) brings notable mountain sports and culture storytellers to Nelson, British Columbia to enrich our small-but-vibrant community through speaking events.NASS was founded in 2020, by mountain sports and culture writer Jayme Moye.
