About us

Our mountain ranges are some of the best in the world. We are quite lucky that way. It offers a whole lot of everything; hiking, mountain biking, road biking, downhill skiing, backcountry skiing, and tons more!

I have been out hiking, backpacking, cross country skiing, and mountain biking. I love it all and am thirsty for more. I have always wanted to try something different... kayaking around the Vancouver Island area, mountain biking in Squamish, cross-country skiing in Vernon, portaging in the beautiful Ontario parks, and much more. Unfortunately, my weekdays are jam-packed which makes it hard to play in new places. I know I am not alone when it comes to busy weekdays!

My goal through this meetup is to organize trips around a mix of activities and xplore our local grounds. More importantly, get a break from our busy lives, enjoy the outdoors, and have a ton of fun with fellow xplorers!

Check out some of our upcoming events and feel free to message me, if you have any questions or suggestions!

Thank you for joining & I look forward to meeting you!
