Pelican Protects: Veteran Ambassador Kirstie Ennis

Taking her excitement for the outdoors and combining that with her mission to live her life to “pay it forward”, Kirstie’s latest project is to climb the Seven Summits with each summit climb dedicated to a different charitable cause. In June 2018, she will climb Mount Denali, on which she will lead the first-ever all-female team of veterans to summit, all while benefiting Building Homes for Heroes, a nonprofit dedicated to constructing homes for returning veterans.

As Kirstie has dedicated her life to protecting and serving others, she has found a natural ally in Pelican Products. Expert Prosthetist Peter Harsch has created a number of specialty prosthetics for Kirstie, each one fine-tuned to a different purpose: snowboarding, rock climbing, ice climbing, mountaineering, and running, to name just a few. Yet the extent of her activities, travel, and specialty gear meant that Ennis needed a range of protective travel cases that are as highly calibrated and as tough as she is. When she is planning her adventures and travel, she doesn't have a single leg that she uses for everything, meaning that she needs to plan for additional gear that isn’t standard issue. Kristie has now collaborated with Pelican to customize protective cases that work for all of her outdoor activities.
