Hiking Safety for You and Your Trailbuds
Calm. Capable. Confident.
Helping solo hikers and their dogs stay visible, prepared, and confident on every trail.
Everyone Teaches Hikers How Not to Get Lost.
Nobody Teaches Hikers How to Get Found.
You've got the map, the layers, and the ten essentials. You know how to plan a hike and tell someone where you're going.
But if a trail disappears, a turn goes wrong, or help is needed, most hikers have no plan for the part that matters most: being seen.
Search and rescue teams find people because they're visible. If you hike with a dog, being found means both of you.
MEET JULIE + MOLLY
Helping Hikers Stay Calm, Capable, and Confident.
Hi, I'm Julie. After years of hiking with my trailbud Molly, I learned that the biggest risks on the trail aren't always dramatic; they're the small decisions that add up. A helicopter rescue changed the way I think about hiking safety, and now I'm on a mission to help other hikers stay calm, capable, confident, and visible when it matters most.
