Meet Kate

When I visited the Blue Ridge Mountains twenty-five years ago, I was captivated and I was home. These mountains are some of the oldest in the world. Their ridges are softened by age, and they are etched with rivers and waterfalls that have been traversing this land since before history itself.

I have hiked hundreds of miles across the southern Appalachian Mountains, and with every step I find myself renewed by their quiet power. These mountains are special not just because of their age, but because of their ability to teach us—to remind us of resilience, to ground us in beauty, and to stir in us a sense of wonder that no photograph or map can fully capture. For me, the Blue Ridge Mountains are not only a place to hike; they are a place to listen, to learn, and to belong.

I look forward to sharing them with you.
