Growing up in the U.S., I was always chasing the wild and climbing mountains, scanning the forests for moose, or getting lost— albeit the good kind —in vast national parks. That childhood pull toward the outdoors only grew stronger with time.

This blog is your trail map to epic solo journeys—from hidden parklands you won’t find in a travel brochure to tips on leaving a positive impact wherever your boots land. Discover travel in North America below!
