      <image:title>About - meet THE MOUNTAIN OUTPOST</image:title>
      <image:caption>Our mission is to help people see how they can move mindfully through nature and connect to the natural environment, every day. We specialize in creating a culture of people who love nature and want to learn, connect, and improve their everyday lives. The Mountain Outpost aims to use Megan’s experiences to protect wild places, inspire and support more people to play outside, and encourage others to live their best lives through movement, nutrition, and mindfulness.   It has always been a dream of Megan’s to open up a physical shop that is also a community space for people to come to gather, learn and hopefully be inspired. A place, where everyone is welcome. Welcome to my virtual representation of a brick + mortar community space. I have had this idea for the last 5 years and finally realized it just needed to happen online.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About - meet MEGAN</image:title>
      <image:caption>Hey there! My name is Megan. I grew up surrounded by the outdoors and nature, but did not realize the power it had on me until my 20s at the time I needed it most. Now after years working in the outdoor industry, practicing and always learning, in order to lead a more sustainable lifestyle, I want to prioritize and share that critical connection with nature to you as it continues to improve my life. Megan is motivated by her desire to deeply connect with and learn from nature. Her dedication to pursuing as much time outside as possible is fueled by a need to understand, appreciate, and protect the places we play.  As a nature mindfulness/ forest bathing teacher, Megan aims to share the power of being present and aware with others to help them find purpose, appreciation for their environment, and a desire to protect wild places.  Megan is committed to a life outside full of responsible adventures. She aims to ride bikes, ski, garden, and run in the mountains for as long as she can. It’s about being out there, appreciating the stark contrast between human and environment, and understanding we are all connected and not so different after-all.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About</image:title>
      <image:caption>The wild idea of creating this space came as I was finishing up my Masters in Environmental Science back in 2015. I wanted to create a space to combine my journalism background, my love of working in the outdoor recreation worlds and my fresh knowledge through Environmental Science into one. With over 10 years experience working and playing in the outdoor sphere, I have worked through the ranks with two main goals making sure people have the tools to feel confident in the outdoors and to educate people about the areas where they recreate. In my spare time you can find me either chasing powder or shredding on my mountain bike, both while camping with my husband and dog.
