Good Gear, Good Trail Ethics, Good Times
Introducing Oats
I am a solo thru-hiker with over 3,000 miles under my belt, making me the perfect conduit for culture, lingo, and other backcountry knowledge.
I help long-distance backpacking gear and media companies who strive to engage their audience by providing authentic, diverse, and informative content to increase community engagement in their online spaces.
Through my work, I am able to educate audiences on good trail ethics and strive for an outdoor community where everyone feels like they belong.
What trails can you find me on next?
Spring/Summer 2024
Iāll be visiting my Woods Hole family before heading on to Appalachian Trail Days in Damascus this Spring.
If youāre a local to the southern Appalachians, come volunteer at Carolina Mountain Clubās Max Patch Work Day on National Trails Day (sponsored by Sawyer!)
Later in the summer you can catch me on the west coast at Pacific Crest Trail Days.
Weāll see where the hiking ends up fitting in, but you know Iāll find somewhere beautiful to trek along the trips.
