Launched from a vision of joyful, place-based nature education, we are delighted to offer custom outdoor experiences around the Sierra Nevada Mountains.

My first overnight outdoor program was in the summer of 2013. The YMCA camp on Orcas Island, Washington included the opportunity to sea kayak to a nearby small uninhabited island. A group of 12 girls from Seattle and our instructor team spent the night sleeping on the group under the stars, lulled to sleep by the sound of quitely lapping waves on the beach.

This was my introduction to the world of outdoor leadership and adventure education.

Since then, I have had the pleasure of guiding youth, young adults, and adult outdoor programs all over the country. My outdoor leadership experience and skills have developed over ten years and include excurisions including sea kayaking in the San Juan Islands, rock climbing in Joshua Tree, alpine backpacking through the Sierra Nevada mountains, and backcountry ski guiding in Hokkaido, Japan.

What sets us apart from other outfitters is our exceptional connection to the natural world and dedication to teaching wilderness travel skills to participants regardless of their previous experiences. Our trips are designed to help you develop lifelong skills and build relationships with some of the most beautiful destinations in North America.

Planning a backcountry trip includes a laundry list of logistics to sort out. Let our extensive background in trip planning and risk management help you and your group have the most relaxing, enjoyable natural experience possible so you can go home exhausted from chasing miles, not questioning details.
