The North Face Presents: How Did We Get Here?​

Three strange animals: The Blondes. Their brains often operate in synchronicity. Together they thrive, feeding off one another in a symbiotic relationship. This species of Blonde is a peculiar specimen. Look at them and wonder. To the onlooker it appears to be absolute chaos. Who are they? How did they get here? Are they natural Blondes?​ ​ Janelle Yip, Emily Childs and Tonje Kvivik go by “The Blondes” and know only one speed: Full throttle. How Did We Get Here? Is an endearing story of the journey that three friends have taken, both on and off the mountain, to lead a passion- and joy-fueled life.
