With deep roots in the outdoors, I spend as much time as possible exploring the outdoors in every season. From scaling rugged cliffs as a rock climber to conquering snow-capped peaks through mountaineering. I enjoy backcountry camping, trail running, snowboarding, xc skiing... the list goes on. I am always planning the next adventure, living for fresh air & type 2 fun.

I am passionate about connecting others with what the possibilities are in our backyard for families, friends and the explorers.

Between growing up on a farm and spending the summers camping in the mountains I have always spent more time outside than in, as an adult not much has changed! I work full time as a paramedic and I thrive off spending my free time exploring the outdoors with my two dogs - Ralph, and Ripley. I love exploring new trails, paddleboarding, camping, cross country skiing and really anything that gets me outdoors. I am always up for pushing my comfort zone, trying new hobbies and making like-minded friends along the way!

I was born and raised in a small BC mountain town and have been exploring the outdoors ever since I can remember. I moved to AB in 2017 and immediately fell in love with the Alberta Rockies and the variety of different landscapes it has to offer.

Connecting with nature fuels my soul and keeps me grounded in a fast-paced world. I am passionate about exploring the outdoors with my loved ones and documenting my adventures through photography and filming. My favorite outdoor activities are hiking, backcountry camping, running, paddle boarding, xc skiing, and downhill skiing!

When I’m not outside, you will find me working as a full-time nurse, listening to music, drinking coffee, going to the gym, playing video games, and journaling.

Born by the mountains of Bangladesh and raised in Calgary, my love for the mountains has been a lifelong journey. The towering peaks of the Canadian Rockies have become my home, where I find endless inspiration as a photographer, hiker, backcountry camper, and snowboarder. Whether capturing the golden hues of the mountain peaks, carving fresh powder, or trekking through remote wilderness, the mountains fuel my passion for adventure. Now, sharing this love with my three-year-old on the trails has made every hike even more special, passing on the joy of exploring Alberta’s incredible landscapes to the next generation

Suzanna and Luke are a husband and wife duo that love exploring the outdoors. Their rescue greyhound, Luna, is usually along for the ride despite her preference to be lounging on a cozy couch. Whenever possible they hit the road to sleep under the stars and disconnect from the city. Both Suzanna and Luke believe that a cup of coffee outside with a view is the best way to start the morning! They love cooking in the wilderness, chasing the Northern lights, stargazing, hiking, and fishing throughout Alberta. Luke recently picked up hunting as well, so they also enjoy trying new recipes with their harvest. A little snow doesn’t keep them inside either! They stay active in the winter by snowshoeing, ice fishing, and winter camping.

Suzanna and Luke love sharing their adventures on their YouTube channel and Instagram. They strive to capture the breathtaking views and inspire others to get outside!
