Welcome! I’m Kelli!

Hi, I’m Kelli 👋 — a born-and-raised Idahoan with a deep love for exploring this amazing state. Whether I’m on my feet, my bike, or my skis, you’ll usually find me outside chasing adventure.

I grew up in Eagle, Idaho, but my family has had a cabin in Donnelly for as long as I can remember. So even though I didn’t officially move to McCall until 2017, Valley County has always felt like home.

When I first moved here, I found myself craving new trails and landscapes beyond the ones I grew up on. I searched far and wide for fresh places to explore — and along the way, I had mentors and friends who pointed me toward new adventures. I’m grateful to them, and now I want to pay it forward by helping others discover the beauty of McCall and beyond.

What I Believe

  • Make every day count. We never know how much time we get, so let’s live fully.
  • Nature changes us. Being outside is better for the soul — and when our souls are nourished, our families, communities, and even our world become stronger and healthier too.
  • Sharing matters. I’ll admit: I sometimes feel scared to share these special places, because I don’t want them to be loved to death. But I believe that by sharing responsibly and educating along the way, we can all do our part to care for and protect the wild spaces we love.

My hope is that this site inspires you to step outside a little more often, to find your own “wow” moments on the trail, and to experience firsthand the joy and healing that nature offers.

When I’m not adventuring outdoors, you’ll find me with my kiddos and hubby, at the CrossFit gym, or traveling across this incredible country (and beyond) in search of new experiences.

Thanks for being here. I can’t wait to share the journey with you!
