No thanks to some crazy late snow patterns in the mountains Spring Q is officially kicked off with an awesome adventure to Salt Water State Park this past weekend led by trip leads Matthew and Rani! Peaks was lucky to have Marine Biology Professor Barbara Krystal help lead discussion on the trek to the tide pools.

We just released a bunch new hike links through the middle of May this past weekend, so check those out in the bio link if you haven’t already. They are first come first serve so fair warning some may be filled, but please stay tuned for the next wave released in the next couple weeks!

Regardless of whether you are hiking with us right now or not we hope y’all are enjoying the sunshine and some early spring hiking. Please DM us any hiking pics you have from recent adventures and we’d be happy to spotlight them!

Happy Thursday Peaks Fam! Definitely a bummer we were unable to run this past weekends hike due to additional snow in the mountains, but please know we are working hard to reschedule hikes to maximize this second half of the quarter for as many of you as possible.

On a more positive note, we wanted to highlight and introduce our newest technology/operations Vice President Curtis! Curtis enjoys running, hiking, and generally just being active in the outdoors (or The Nature as he calls it). Curtis is a sophomore from Minneapolis studying molecular biology. His favorite hike was watching the sunrise from Baldy Mountain in New Mexico. Curtis hasn’t done too much hiking in WA but is hoping to soon, and his favorite part of hiking is taking in breathtaking scenery while he has a good THINK!

Action packed trip lead retreat. Excited for fun a Spring Q with y’all! Best of luck to everyone wrapping up your finals!

Welcome back peaks! Hoping everyone enjoyed their extended weekends. Your trip leads have been working hard to organize and finalize our spring hiking event schedule, so stay tuned for that! We also plan to launch a new mini series on some helpful tips for hiking preparation and tips, and additionally intend to host a cookout in the park featuring BYOJB, or bring your own jet boil!

Also, we would like to introduce another one of our awesome new trip leads, Lucy!

Lucy is a sophomore from Boston and is eager to keep exploring the PNW! She has loved seeing the terrain of Washington through snowshoeing, sailing, swimming, and hiking. She is easily convinced to go for an adventure and her sense of humor will be sure to keep you entertained. Overall super fun to be around and she is stoked to lead you all on fun trips!

Peaks trip lead spotlight! Wanted to welcome another great lead to the Fam🙏

Jovanna hails from water-deprived Southern California and is not yet used to leaving the sink running while washing dishes. She considers her best skill her geoguessing abilities, claiming you can tell states from each other because the dirt and trees look different. A big fan of carne asada street tacos, sneaky candid photos, and hiking faster than others, she is ready to take on the title of trip lead

What’s good Peaks fam✌️ Out here sharing another one of your new trip leads. Show some love for Matthew! Also stay tuned for more peaks events coming soon.

Matthew likes exploring the backcountry and mountain house chicken and dumplings. He also enjoys taking proof of life photos just in case. A fan of peanut and tortilla burritos, late nights at golden gardens for bonfires, and a few too many cliff bars and trail mix, Matthew is sure to keep you on your toes and is stoked to be a new trip lead.

Welcoming another awesome new trip lead, say what’s up to Shane!

Shane is passionate about the outdoors in all aspects! In the summers you can find him ripping down trails on his mountain bike and then hiking up and down those same peaks! Aside from the outdoors, he is passionate about drumming. Shane has been playing the drums for over 15 years. He’s looking forward to more memories behind the kit and up in the mountains 🤘
