Connie D

From high mountain trails to desert canyons, Connie finds joy in exploring wild places and sharing them with others. She leads adventure travel across the U.S. and abroad, guiding hiking trips through Utah’s red rock canyons, bikepacking in Norway, and multi-sport expeditions from Alaska to the Alps. Her own travels have taken her trekking in Nepal, diving in Indonesia, and hiking the iconic John Muir Trail. With years of experience leading groups in remote settings, she prioritizes fostering a supportive environment that empowers people to go beyond what they thought they could achieve. She believes that extended time in nature is a reset—an opportunity to embrace challenge, reconnect with the present moment, and gain a newfound comfort with discomfort. When not guiding, you’ll find her trail running, slacklining, and backpacking, always dreaming up the next big adventure.
