Raymond Romses

Served 39 years in the CAF before retiring to Lethbridge, Alberta. Just completed 3 1/2 years as the Princess Patricia’s Canadian Light Infantry Colonel of the Regiment which was a tremendous honour. I’m participating in “Into the Summit” because this cause is just so important and impacted so many of our CAF members. I look forward to the experience and encourage folks to donate generously.

Alex Gault

I've been part of the core team leading the Into the Summit campaigns since the first launch. As a long standing volunteer serving the PPCLI, this fundraising event supporting veterans and their families is my favourite. If interested in learning more about the campaign or the Hamilton Gault Memorial Fund, please contact me directly for more information.

Christian Stenner

Caves are complex environments that provide an opportunity to face physical and mental challenges. I have been a participant and leader of the Into the Summit projects since 2016, and this opportunity is another chance to continue to support mental health initiatives for veterans.  We have this opportunity to face our own fears while fundraising to support those who need our help, and it is an honour to do so.

Andrew Mullett

Hi! I'm someone who believes in giving back and making a positive difference whenever I can. I'm taking part in this fundraiser because every contribution, no matter the size, can have a meaningful impact. I appreciate the support of my family, friends, and community, and I'm grateful to everyone who helps by donating or sharing my page. Thank you for being part of this journey!

Solara Muskego

Hi! My name is Solara and I am a part of the 2554 PPCLI army cadet core in Calgary. Two years ago I was able to participate in this fundraising event and it was such an amazing experience. I have two sisters, a cat, a dog, and my family fosters animals so we recently had a little dog called Old Miss Figg. I am excited to help raise money for an important cause. Thank you!

Jeanelle Narayan

This year, I’m heading back Into the Summit for a second time—and I’m even more excited for the experience and the cause behind it.

Last year’s descent into Rat’s Nest Cave was an incredible and deeply meaningful experience. Challenging myself in an unfamiliar environment, surrounded by an amazing group of people, while raising awareness and funds for Occupational Stress Injuries made it so much more than just an adventure.

I’m proud to take on the challenge again in support of mental health and wellness, and of the veterans, serving members, and families who are impacted by operational stress injuries.

Thank you to everyone who supports, donates, shares, or simply cheers us on. Every bit makes a difference.

Mobina Jafarabadi

I’m excited to take part in Into the Summit because supporting the military community has become genuinely meaningful to me. Through my work and volunteering at The Military Museums, I’ve had the chance to learn from this community and connect with people whose experiences have really stayed with me.

For me, this isn’t just about taking on a challenge. It’s about showing support, raising awareness, and reminding serving members, veterans, and their families that they’re not alone.

I’m proud to be part of this event and excited to push myself while giving back to a community that has become important to me.

Andrew Mullett

I'm a father of two amazing boys and am currently serving with the Canadian Forces. There's nothing I love more than spending time with family. I am not a thrill seeker, but I really do enjoy discovering new things about my province and all it has to offer. I want to raise awareness for mental health because I have witnessed first hand how PTSD can have an effect on someone's life. Please help me and my friends raise awareness on mental health so we all can live a happy and healthy life.

Nadia Maarouf

I am a healthcare professional and a medical humanitaran work volunteer. Over the years three of my collegues/classmates died by suicide due to PTSD and/or severe burn-out after suffering in silence. Raising awarness for occupational stress injury is a crutial antidote. 
Thank you for your generous support!

Darren Burnett

Hi, I’m Darren. I’m originally from Australia and have called Canada home since 2003. I’m the son of an Australian Army Vietnam Veteran, so supporting veterans and raising awareness about PTSD and mental health is something that has always felt worthwhile to me.

I’ve taken part in Into the Summit before and had an incredible experience, so I’m excited to head back underground and do it again this year. It’s a unique challenge, a great cause, and an opportunity to help support veterans and their families.

When I’m not crawling around inside mountains, I’m usually writing music, brewing something up, curling, snowboarding, or spending time outdoors hanging out with my wife and our Akita, Nash.

Thanks for checking out my page and for any support you can give!

Brian Cole

I am a 57 year old father of 2 amazing boy, and professional photographer. I enjoy kayaking, hiking and spending my time in the rodeo arenas photographing and capturing the moments for everyone. Mental Health is so important, especially for our veterans and serving member of our Canadian Armed Forces. The will be a true and tough test of my mental toughness, and endurance as this is a dark, damp, and tight environment. I wish to thank you, for all your support and lets see if I can reach my goal.

Jeanelle Narayan

This will be my first descent into Rat’s Nest Cave, and I wanted to make it even more meaningful by joining this impactful campaign. I’m excited to challenge myself in a new environment alongside new friends, all united in supporting the same cause—raising awareness for Occupational Stress Injuries. Mental health affects us all, and fostering a strong, supportive community is something I deeply care about.

Ashley Fournier-Montalvo

I would like to raise funds to support members with PTSD or who have experienced an occupational stress injury. As a Canadian Armed Forces member, I have friends who have experienced traumas from their deployments which forever changed them. I myself also participated in OSI clinics and experienced first hand the importance of community and support.

Mitchell Alma

As a current member of the P.P.C.L.I. I am very excited to take part in this event held by the Hamilton Gault Memorial Fund. I’m hoping to raise funds to support currently serving and former member’s mental health. As a new Albertan, I’m excited to see if I like being inside the mountain as much as I enjoy being on top of them.

Mental Health is extremely important to the fitness of our regiment and society as a whole, and any way we can support those suffering is a worthy cause. 2VP, 2nd to none.

Solara Muskego

Hi, my name is Solara and I want to participate in this because I am in a really good youth program and I think it would be a great chance for me to make more friends. I also have never done anything like this and thought that it would be an amazing experience.
