Psychology graduate Sally Stecher considers herself a great lover of people. Born and raised in Texas, she has always been drawn to the mountains. She grew up traveling every chance she got, and in college, she fell in love with running. Her enthusiasm for learning and spending time outside has shaped her to be a grounded individual, open to new experiences and testing her limits. Sally enjoys espresso and a good book, but give her a pair of running shoes, and she feels ready for anything thrown her way. Sally is currently in the process of attaining her Yoga Teacher Training Certification and Wim Hof Method training.
Madison was raised in the mountains of Glacier NP, spending her summers hiking and backpacking through the peaks and valleys. From a young age, she knew that Northwest Montana was home in her soul. As a college junior, she embarked on a sailing trip around the world, connecting with people of all walks of life and returning with an even greater thirst for adventure. Since that time, Madison has lived in Japan and New Zealand, while always seeking the outdoors. The idea of starting her company came to Madison on a backpacking trip in 2020, when she realized how healing the outdoors was for her, and how wants to provide this same experience for others. Recently she has been leaning into her other great passion of woodworking.
