Hello ! My name is Chris
& I love having awesome adventures with my family and friends
I am a dad that started out with no real experience or skills related to travelling or venturing into the great outdoors. Realizing very quickly that I wanted to get my family out of the house and off of electronics, I needed to better myself and learn the skills needed to get all of us off of the couch and into the outdoors.
I remember seeing my children "zoned" out on their electronic devices, playing video games or just watching TV like little zombies. Looking at them, I asked myself the following questions:
Is this the legacy that I want to leave with them?
Is this how I want them to grow up?
Is this the type of Dad I want to be?
Of course, the answer was, No! That being said, I knew that there was a big world out there, that was filled with real mountains to climb, forest trails to explore, and cities all over the world filled with culture and history that would change our lives and how we look at the world.
I knew that we were missing out on this world and I was missing out on having awesome adventures with my family. I also wanted to be able to teach them the skills that they would need to be able to travel and handle the outdoors.
I knew that I had to get off of the couch and lead my family on these adventures.
This is our journey from our first "campout" in the backyard to traveling multiple times to Europe and completing multi-day treks at elevation carrying everything on our backs.
No matter where you are on your TREK, I want to help you obtain the skills and confidence needed to get your family out of the house and out into everything that the world has to offer.
I will help you get there by providing authentic information related to the skills, research and gear needed to have the ultimate family adventure.
Feel free to email me any questions that you may have. If you have a topic that you would like me to cover, then send me an email and we will make it happen.
Thanks,
Chris.
Is Everybody Ready... Trek On!
