A Comprehensive Review: Alder’s Women's Clothing
I’m always keeping my eyes peeled for new, up and coming brands making outdoor gear for the modern lady who likes to spend a lot of time outdoors, because to be honest… I feel like women’s outdoor clothing often misses the mark. Recently I got my hands on some pieces from Alder’s collection from our friends over at REI to test during my South American travels to see if they’re filling the void in women’s outdoor clothing!
How to Pack for Packrafting
In this video/post I take you through the basic gear and how to pack for packrafting. Though this will focus on packing for a packrafting trip that requires you to backpack in, it’ll be helpful for anyone wanting to learn gear basics.
Packrafting the Green River
After a successful inaugural packrafing in Escalante, we were fired up to get back on the water. We quickly got to work planning our second packrafting trip, this time, we were ready for more technical water and add to our growing skills on the water. For this we returned to our beloved Wind River mountain range.
Packrafting in Escalante, Utah
I have been so excited about this blog post because it’s a trip recap from our FIRST EVER packrafting trip.

Dropped In The Wilderness Of Alaska | Lost & Found EP.11
Before we ever left for Alaska my brother Erick and bonus sister Julie invited us out for a unique experience. Erick and Julie hunt to provide themselves with the entirety of their meat needs.

Summer Adrift Episode 16: Finale in Cirque of the Towers
Before we get into this final episode, I want to take a moment to thank you all. This series, A Summer Adrift, was the first of hopefully many. We had no idea how this format of video would be received, but we wanted to take the time to record, write, and make something more in-depth than we’ve ever made before as a way to process this turbulent year. At the time that we started putting this series together, we had no idea that it would turn into the biggest creative undertaking each of us had ever been apart of. This is the kind of work that we want to make in the future. It’s fulfilling to be able to go out and live all of this, but it’s something else entirely to reflect on it to make a cohesive storyline out of what this summer has meant to us.
Summer Adrift Episode 14: Wind River Range
After being in Jackson and saying goodbye to Chase and Aimee, we ventured farther south to Pinedale, Wyoming with Peter, Shruthi, and Micah. We came here with plans to head into the backcountry for a four-day backpacking trip.
