Billy Strasser

Profession:

National Park Ranger | Outdoor Educator

Hi, I’m William. I grew up on a farm wandering fields looking for arrowheads, so it’s no surprise that I combined my love of the outdoors with a deep passion for history. I’ve worked as a National Park Service ranger and educator across more than 12 park sites, helping people connect with nature and the stories of place.

Most recently, I retired from New River Gorge National Park in West Virginia. These days, my wife and I run a small business designing wayside signs for local parks, and we’re heading back to school soon to study art! Whether you’re looking to get off the beaten path, uncover regional history, or just find the best trails and views, I’m excited to help.

Profession:

Professional Guide

Hi, I’m Kellie! I quit my 9-to-5 to climb full-time, living on the road for years and exploring some of the best crags in North America. From Smith Rock to Moab, El Potrero Chico to Squamish, I’ve climbed all over and love helping others plan their own climbing trips—whether it’s finding the best routes, avoiding crowds, or getting the beta on van life. If you’re a solo traveler, first-time adventurer, or looking for epic climbing destinations, let’s chat!

Mary Leavines

Profession:

Professional Guide

Hi, I’m Mary! In 2022, I achieved a lifelong goal of thru-hiking the entire Appalachian Trail as a solo female hiker. Since then, I’ve completed 650+ miles of the Pacific Crest Trail, owned and operated a thru-hiker hostel, and guided backpacking trips across the Blue Ridge Mountains and beyond. I’m passionate about helping solo hikers and first-time adventurers feel prepared, safe, and excited to take on the trail. Whether you’re planning your first overnight trip or looking to tackle a long-distance trek, I’d love to help you plan your journey.
