About

Hi! I love the outdoors with a passion, and my ultimate goal is to help others enjoy it, too. 

As far as credentials go, I’ve hiked mountains and canyons, canoed rivers and lakes, camped in freezing temperatures, and taught wilderness survival and orienteering classes for years. I’ve also recently taken up mountain biking and snowboarding, though I’m not great at either one (yet). 

The Outdoorsist started as a way to share my love of the outdoors with as many people as possible. I hope that in some small way, whether it’s camping, prepping, or survival skills, this site will inspire you to get out there and experience all that nature has to offer.
