Hello, my name is Kelsey.

I started this website when I moved to Salt Lake City from Portland. I found myself exploring new places, often alone, and wanted to share my experiences with others that might find themselves in a similar situation. Since then, we moved back to Portland and I found myself craving more backcountry adventures. This site now serves as a place to squirrel away my memories somewhere tangible, but I also hope it continues to inspire others to quest in their own corners of this wild country. 

I hope my stories embolden and excite you.

With an open heart and lots of love,

Kelsey
