11 days adventuring, 8 days backpacking, 80+ miles

11 days adventuring, 8 days backpacking, 80+ miles logged, bazillion ft elevation gain, 12 blisters.

This is precisely how I wanted to spend my 40th birthday. Technically it’s still in a couple weeks, but I’m embracing the milestone early. Feeling exhausted, but happy and strong.

I knew Alabama Hills would be magic to me before I ever even set foot on the land. The ground is sacred to many people and I completely understand why. Climbing in January definitely isn’t prime season, but it’s the time I had and it was incredibly peaceful (and freezing 🥶).

I have been itching to go back and share my love of this area with friends so I’m SUPER excited to share this trip that I’m leading in October with @womenwhoexplore

We are working with @whitney_base_camp_climbing to teach basic intro to climbing and morning yoga. Come with some or no experience! It’s going to be a weekend to remember spent with amazing women. I have the link in my bio if you’re interested in booking or want more info. Feel free to DM with any questions! October 7-10, 2021.

This is our “we should be influencers” awkward posing. Something tells me that we didn’t quite nail it 😂

I had such a hard time wrapping my head around the size of Rainier. So amazing. Wonderland Trail, you’re now on my to do list!

Over the past couple of years the group has become family. We climb, camp, mountain bike, travel, drink, and chill together.

A few are moving away next month and I could be super sad about this (which part of me is), but I’m choosing to see it as an opportunity to travel more! Plans are still being made, trips are being booked, but I’ll miss the weekly get togethers.

So many adventures over the past few months and so little sharing!

This one is from Index, WA. I fell completely head over heels in love with this area. I got in a couple climbs, a hike, hours spent in a wood fired hot tub and lots of relaxing.

Here I am checking out the crazy amazing rock and wondering if I’m anywhere good enough to send it. Turns out I am… at least on the “easy” routes 😂 I feel like nothing is easy in this area though!

After some much needed rest and relaxation (with a healthy dose of adventure), I’m back. Sometimes you just need a little break.

2021 has been a whirlwind. I haven’t posted much on here because honestly, I haven’t felt like I had the mental bandwidth to do it.

The adventures haven’t stopped so I have a backlog of photos to work through. I have exciting announcements coming up. Big life changes in the works.

For now I’m keeping all the plates spinning and the balls in the air. 2021, you’ve been a doozy so far, but I’m in for the ride!
