Happy national take a hike day! this shot was taken from one of my favorite local trails in the san gabriel mountains. i'm so proud to collaborate with athleta on their sustainability campaign. athleta is a certified b corporation, balancing purpose and profit. they are a brand inspired by everything women and girls are capable of! 40% of their fabrics are made with sustainable fibers and their goal for 2020 is to reach 80%! where are the trails taking you today? @athleta #powerofshe

Does anyone backpack in the winter?what gear do you bring? as the weather cools down and we transition into the winter season, i’d love to go on more backpacking trips. not sure where to start, does anyone have any trips for a first time winter backpacker?

So grateful for our firefighters and first responders. it’s been a difficult week for many with the multiple fires that have raging in socal. i married my husband 5 years ago at calamigos ranch in malibu—not sure what’s left of it after the fire damage. i’m throwing it back to an old photo of sandstone peak when the mountains were much greener. i know the area will regrow with time but it will never quite be the same. #thankyoucafirepersonnel

Enjoying a lovely weekend in idyllwild with this awesome group of ladies! @devon.haley @jennyjump264 @hikeforward @sharee_rodriguez 🌲🌲🌲

“hiking is a bit like life: the journey only requires you to put one foot in front of the other…again and again and again. and if you allow yourself the opportunity to be present throughout the entirety of the trek, you will witness beauty every step of the way, not just at the summit” unknown

The mountains are calling and i must go...! i love using my @garminoutdoor fenix watch to track my hikes. it tracks activities: logging distance, gain, heart rate, steps, calories burned and so much more. what tracking device do you use when you hike? stay tuned next month for a special @garminoutdoor giveaway! 😉
