About Us – Meet the Crew Behind the Reviews
We’re four best friends with one shared goal: to explore all 11 National Scenic Trails and build a community of fellow hikers and campers who value experience over hype.
- Mike – The gearhead and route planner. If it has zippers, straps, or GORE-TEX, he’s already tested it.
- Sasha – The cold-weather queen. From snow shelters to ultralight insulation, she’s our winter camping expert.
- Jake – The minimalist. If it doesn’t fit in a 30L pack, he probably doesn’t need it — and he'll tell you why.
- Tina – The storyteller and photographer. She captures the spirit of every trail and writes gear reviews with heart.
Together, we hike, we camp, we test, and we review. But most of all, we live for the wild places — and want to help you enjoy them with gear that works, lasts, and earns its keep.
