Exploring Arizona: an urban girl’s perspective
Big smiles during their first backpacking trip in the Superstition Wilderness

Kiersten and Renee have been great friends for several years and their closeness has been further nurtured by similar passions for embracing this world we all live in. They believe that as urban dwellers, it is imperative to balance life with a regular recharge in the outdoors. Through OPTOUTSIDEAZ, their goal is to strengthen their connection with planet Earth, nurture a community of land lovers, and inspire others to appreciate all Arizona has to offer. 

Good company in a journey makes the way seem shorter.
