Founding Memebers

We believe life is meant to be lived, not watched through a screen.
As teens and young adults, we’ve built a community rooted in friendship, nature, and real connection through hiking, fishing, running, and more. We’re on a mission to help kids and teens live fuller, happier lives—one adventure at a time.
