About Us

Stevie Dembowski was raised on a lakeside in rural Maine and is no stranger to hiking and camping with the family. When she was old enough to attend summer camp she got hooked on outdoor living. Stevie worked as a summer camp counselor and outdoor education instructor. Her first backpacking trip was along the 100 Mile Wilderness. She spent two months backpacking across Ireland, thru-hiked the Appalachian Trail and walked the length of New Zealand. She’s working on a thru-hike of the Colorado Trail.
