My name is Sarah, I am a fourth generation Colorado Native and I was fortunate to grow up in Fruita, CO where I had plenty of access to the outdoors.  Western Colorado has many opportunities for outdoor adventure ranging from hiking, biking, camping, water sports, winter sports, and much more.  Having grown up taking advantage of all these activities I found I was best suited for a career that allowed me to stay active and play, so I pursued a career in recreation and wellness with a Bachelor's in Sports & Exercise Science and a Master's in Parks. Recreation, & Tourism.  I love the outdoors and have seen lots of beautiful country in my own leisure time and through my work life as well.  With a passion for health and wellness and the outdoors, I enjoy sharing my favorite adventures with others.  I want to encourage my readers to stay active, enjoy the outdoors, and to help protect our trails and open space by becoming stewards of the environment.  Enjoy the beauty of each unique location, reap the benefits of being outside, and leave your destination in the same condition as you found it!
