Naked and Afraid survivalist, adventurer extraordinaire!!
There’s no shortcuts to the top 🏔️ The Wind Rivers in Wyoming are one of the most remote mountain ranges in the lower 48. The level of commitment to safely and successfully ride these lines is a mandatory marathon in distance, requiring thousands of feet of vertical gain and descent.
When the level of commitment is extreme, we need gear that we can trust in the toughest of situations
The initial plan was to head to Alaska for a glacier camp expedition, but without a solid weather window our team decided to look closer to home and head eastbound and down to Wyoming’s enigmatic Wind River Range, truly the heart of the wild west.
What proceeded was an extraordinary 7 day expedition, covering over 70 miles and 30,000ft of vertical climbing and riding amongst massive granitic cirques.

Rooted 🌲 Being rooted in the PNW means being ready for whatever Mother Nature can throw your way. The PNW doesn’t give it up easily—every summit, tour, climb, and access point to the wilderness requires work. You must be willing to put in the work necessary to see your aspirations come to fruition. Being a 4th generation Seattleite, I come from a long line of hardy folks built to endure the challenges of our rugged coasts and jagged peaks.
When it comes to the challenges of the PNW. I’ve become a product of my environment—indifferent to things I can’t control (i.e., the weather), dedicated to what I can control (i.e., my objective), and the power to know the difference. It’s not always sunshine and rainbows in the PNW when I have an objective, project, or line to ride. I need to be able to adapt, pivot, and or train for that objective until the opportunity arises to execute.
The literal ups and downs of mountain climbing, skiing, and outdoor pursuits parallel that of life and sport. To get to the proverbial summit, you have to start at the bottom, overcoming obstacles to achieve whatever physical or metaphorical summit you’re pursuing. To finally reach that summit or goal, just see that there’s a sea of peaks and goals to continue to push for.
You can’t live on that summit—you have to go down. And it’s up to you to push for another one. True growth comes from the journey, not the destination.
Being rooted in my passion is being rooted in the outdoors. Throughout my journey, being able to come back to the basics of communing with nature at any level is what keeps me grounded.
