The Evolution of Balance Award is a bi-annual grant to support riders seeking non-competitive mountain unicycling adventures in remote places around the world.
This year's winners are Anne-Sophie Rodet (Canada) and Kelli Carley (USA), An’So and Kelli proposed a self-supported technical muni traverse in the Alps from the Chartreuse Range in France to Zermatt, Switzerland, via Chamonix-Mont Blanc. The proposed trip includes the famous Haute Route ski traverse and will cover about 500km and 25,000m of elevation gain, much of it singletrack in the high alpine.

In 2013, Cary Gray applied for Kris Holm's Evolution of Balance Award with an application that frankly would have sounded unbelievable if not for his already impressive record of self-supported unicycle rides. Cary had proposed a convoluted, 24,000 km route along roads and trails through every single land-based country in North and South America.
Two and a Half years later Kris has caught up with Cary to ask him a few questions, read about it here.
