Live Your Kurgo Adventure

A while ago I entered a contest on a whim. I didn’t think it would ever go anywhere so I don’t think I ever fully admitted to myself just how much I wanted to win this. The contest is being hosted by Kurgo, a company that makes outdoor & travel products for dogs. They are…

Apologies & Adventures

It’s been far too long since I’ve posted on here, and for that I apologize. Life has taken on a craziness of it’s own and time seems to be flying by with little down time! I’m not going to complain though! It’s been wonderful (albeit slightly exhausting). So what’s new? Things are busy! I have…

Why I Hike Solo

In case you missed it, I got an ambassadorship with Oboz Footwear! I am more than ecstatic. To say that I love their boots is an understatement. I honestly only own Oboz boots (I currently own four pairs with eyes on a couple more). Every pair has gone above and beyond my expectations. I tested…

Happy Anniversary!

Things have been busier than normal at work, I’ve been working more hours than normal, so I apologize for the lack of posts lately, but things are beginning to slow down for a little bit so I’ll be back in full force soon! That being said, I’ve still been finding the time to get outside.…

Why Hello There Spring!

Oh happy days! Spring is here in full force and I am soaking it up as much as possible! I have spent the past three days on wonderful hikes, my trusty four legged side-kick has been loving all of this exercise, and I am determined to continue spending as much time as possible outside on…

My Throwback Thursday

I thought that this would be a fun little post, it is #tbt after all! (please don’t judge me for using a hashtag in my post!) It’s fun to look back on old pictures and reminisce on how different things used to be, how different you used to be. Who I was in college is pretty…

Good News! (mostly)

Most of you know that I’ve been out of the hiking game for over a month now. Back in January I injured my knee on a hike, after a visit to the doctor I was told that I should stop all physical activity for the next month and start physical therapy. So, like a good…

Cecilie Skog

In honor of International Women’s Day I decided to do a little research on women who have left their mark on the outside world. I’m not going to lie, it wasn’t easy finding anyone. My google searches kept turning up articles about how females can stay safe on the trail or tips for female hikers.…

Hiking Solo as a Female

As a female hiker that has a tendency to hike alone, with the exception of my dog, I often get the question, ‘Why don’t you hike with a partner?‘ or sometimes people just flat-out say ‘It’s really not safe out there, you should bring someone with you, preferably a guy.‘ If I’m being totally honest,…

Oboz and Interviews

My goodness it’s been a while since I’ve had a post on here! I’m sorry about that! I was out of town for a week and the couch ridden with the flu! But I am back at it this week and I’m starting off with some really exciting updates! First of all, I’d really like…
