Hello my name is Gillian! I was raised in the redwoods near the northern coast of California. I am a class of 2023 NOBO PCT hiker. Currently I am living in my favorite trail town in central Oregon! When I’m not waking long distances I am probably riding my mountain bike, trail running, or trying to find out where to get the best breakfast burrito. I have a degree in Outdoor Leadership and love any opportunity to get others stoked about moving their bodies outdoors!
