Hi, I’m Kellie! I quit my 9-to-5 to climb full-time, living on the road for years and exploring some of the best crags in North America. From Smith Rock to Moab, El Potrero Chico to Squamish, I’ve climbed all over and love helping others plan their own climbing trips—whether it’s finding the best routes, avoiding crowds, or getting the beta on van life. If you’re a solo traveler, first-time adventurer, or looking for epic climbing destinations, let’s chat!
Where I Can Help:
📍 Smith Rock & Central Oregon – My home base and one of the best climbing spots in the U.S. Whether you’re looking for beginner-friendly climbs or challenging multi-pitches, I can help.
📍 Moab & Indian Creek – If you’re heading to the desert, I’ve got beta on the best cracks, hidden gems, and logistics for a smooth trip.
📍 Squamish & British Columbia – One of my all-time favorite places to climb. I can help you plan a trip with the best granite routes, camp spots, and rest-day activities.
📍 El Potrero Chico & Mexico’s Crags – From sport climbing in El Potrero to bouldering in Jilotepec, I’ve spent seasons exploring Mexico’s best climbing areas.
📍 Road-Tripping & Van Life – I spent years living in my Honda Pilot and then my van, so I’ve got tons of tips on where to camp, shower, and stay safe while road-tripping.
My Favorite Adventures:
🧗 Learning to climb – The joy, the fear, the rush of getting to the top—it changed everything for me.
🚐 Quitting my job & moving into my car – Searching for the best rock climbs and the most incredible outdoor communities.
🌄 Climbing in Mexico – El Potrero Chico, Jilotepec, El Salto—I’ve had some of my best climbing days south of the border.
If you’re looking for the best climbing destinations, road-tripping tips, or just need to know where to start, I’d love to help!
