Rebekah lives in a backwoodsy, mountainous region of eastern Washington, and can’t get enough of being outside. She hikes, backpacks, climbs mountains, trail runs, cross-country skis, snowshoes, camps, birdwatches, gardens, cuts firewood, pulls weeds, and just generally loves the world outside of four walls. When she is inside, you might find her cooking, processing garden fare, reading, singing along to Spotify, looking out the window, or some combination thereof.
