Meet Nikki
Nikki Stavile is an experienced hiker, backpacker, trail runner, and all-around outdoor human. “Spending so much time in nature has taught me that every hike is more than just the miles you cover,” she said. “When you hike, you're walking through unique ecosystems that took million of years to form. You're following the footsteps of the many people that came before you. Hiking is a way to experience the many layered stories of these places, in a quiet, go-at-your-own-pace way.”
