UPCOMING FEATURED EVENTS

Picture perfect night to paddle through the sunset and under the full flower moon on Pushaw Stream! Awesome group of people and a lot of wildlife showed up to show off for us 🤎

Paddled under the full Flower Moon last night at Hirundo—made it all the way to the Pushaw Stream dam for the first time with a group! A little breeze, glowing moonlight, and so much wildlife: silent loons right in front of us, a bald eagle watching the stream, beavers splashing, and fish jumping near the boats. Even heard a strange croak—maybe a giant frog?

Such a special night with a great group. The moon showed up, and nature did too.

Thank you to everyone who showed up 🫶🌕

🕷️ Meet Maine’s tick trio:
✔️ Deer Tick – spreads Lyme, babesiosis, and anaplasmosis
✔️ Dog Tick – carries Rocky Mountain spotted fever
✔️ Lone Star Tick – linked to red meat allergy (Alpha-Gal)
Knowing what bit you can make all the difference.

If you have one that is questionable, send it to @university.of.maine #TickLab

I felt like I was in the movie spirit tonight 🐴 🐎 My girl is a rockstar. Traffic, other horses, dogs chasing us and tons of bugs walking next to a boggy area and she wasn’t phased at all. I think she is almost back to 100% health wise so hopefully I’ll be in the saddle soon! @morganwallen radio on @siriusxm with a side of @chrisstapleton 😍

Spring maintenance and replaced some vinyl on the step side today! Thanks for sending me replacements for my 10+ year old vinyl @big_changes86 #diamondplate #addict #girlswithtrucks #obs #obschevy #spring #maine

Spooky season vibes while doing some conditioning training up on Chick!! 🌑🌫️👀👻🐦‍⬛

🌿 Ticks are back! 🕷️ In Maine, they’re active from early spring through late fall—even on mild winter days.
Stay alert, stay safe, and let’s make every hike tick-smart.

Look at this adorable little hiker in training! For being just two years old, she did amazing today. So proud of this little munchkin!

We hiked Mount Waldo in Frankfort, starting at the Quarry side. At the summit, I split off and went down the south side trail—my first time on that part of the mountain. The sun was very warm on that side, and it felt like spring was really here. I climbed back up and finally caught up with them at the quarry. Side note: someone has clearly put a lot of time and effort into that trail—it’s in great shape now!

What a beautiful day to reconnect with an old friend and pick up right where we left off. I can’t wait to hike with this crew more this year.

Huge ‘thank you’ to all of the paddlers who showed up last night at @hirundowildlife for the Full Moon Paddle! Brianna, the program director at Hirundo stole the show with so many wonderful facts about the refuge 🤎 I can’t wait to pass some of those facts on to future paddlers! Although the moon seemed to be MIA, we got to see eagles and a few beavers! It is crazy how high the water is right now! Can’t wait to be back next month for their next full moon paddle! Let’s hope we see it this time! 😂 We had quite a few newbies join us last night and I hope to see all of you again soon!! 🦫🌕🦅

Behind the scenes of ladies clinic with @leterripllc and amazing guides @alibenway and @1_eyed_rider 🤘🏻 I took away so much and had things starting to click! (No amazing footage from my final day where the progress I made was unreal😳) Backcountry is friggin hard and it’s even harder if it doesn’t come naturally to you! So glad to have this clinic to help me. #maine #backcountry #green #rider #khaos #polaris #learning #backcountry #northernmaine #womensupportingwomen #empowerment #girlswhoride @polarissnow @alibenway @1_eyed_rider @ewtsportlineint_official @509women @backwoodsbmp

This hike covers approximately 8.5 miles round trip with 1,900 feet of elevation gain.
🧗‍♀️To access the Pamola Caves, you'll need to be comfortable with squeezing through tight rock spaces and pulling yourself up through narrow passages.
It’s a true backcountry adventure — challenging, rewarding, and unforgettable. #linkinbio #hcmaineadventures #maineguide #caves #baxter

I’m happy to report that at least one living creature was happy about the fresh snow this morning 🧐❄️😂 #dogsofinstagram #snow #maine

“Let’s go to the world-famous Mountain Top in St. Thomas!”
Perched high above Magens Bay, this legendary lookout point offers more than just breathtaking views—it’s a rite of passage for anyone visiting the U.S. Virgin Islands. The winding drive up through lush, tropical hills is half the fun, with glimpses of the sparkling Caribbean teasing you through the trees. But nothing compares to that moment when you finally step out, lean over the railing, and see the entire bay laid out before you like a painting. And yes—the banana daiquiris are just as good as they say.

Featured in the @bangordailynews 👀 my handsome dude! 😍🐕 Make sure you check it out! I talk about a couple of my favorite spots including @hirundowildlife My friends @danielledorrie and @canoechris74 of @skylinemaineadventures are also featured! If you aren’t following them, go give them a like! They are also offering really great rental and guiding opportunities in the area! #maineguides #guidelife #paddle #adventure #Maine #registeredmaineguide #beanoutsider #mainetheway #penobscot #river #pond #lakelife

First paddle of the season—one week away!
If the weather holds, we’ll float under the pink moon on Pushaw Stream at Hirundo Wildlife Refuge.
Can’t wait 🌕🛶✨

First night was all about showing up, some introduction and an amazing Charcuterie board set up Treena.

Day two we snowshoed all of the groomed trails on the property, (went to 🇨🇦), made a killer fire and cute snowmen. I ate more food than I normally do in a week; because let me tell you, these girls delivered some amazing dishes as part of our pot luck meals.

Our final evening at the Back to the Basics Yurt, we caught a glimpse of the sunset as a group and enjoyed a small ceremony honoring the Worm Moon and welcoming the arrival of spring.

Our final morning we pack muled our gear to our vehicles and headed south down Route 1 and some of us were able to check out some history in Houlton at the Gateway Crossing.

I am feeling so full (mentally and quite literally 😂) after this weekend. Thank you ladies for an amazing weekend! 🫶🤎

🏔️I’m seriously hoping someone in the group bought a lottery ticket yesterday, because our weather luck was off the charts! ☀️I had such a great time with the group yesterday and we really had a blast (except for the fact that some of us, okay fine, 🙈me, had a battery that was deader than a doornail thanks to daylight savings time🪫which is very abnormal).

Thanks for a fantastic day in Rockwood, ladies! 🤎

I have met a lot of strong and empowering women from near and far.. and I can’t wait to meet more of you! Here are just a few from my camera roll!
