MEET THE HOSTS & GUIDES

Scott Janz

In 2003 I completed a Thru-Hike on the Appalachian Trail. Since then I have over 12,000 miles underfoot and 20 years of backpacking, and camping experience. Certifications include WFA, WFR, LNT Trainer, and belong to AORE. Have been guiding backpacking trips for over 10 years. The outdoors has taught me one thing. Trusting the Trail! really does provide everything a person needs.

Ariane Petrucci

I started my outdoor career as a climber. Ice climbing in the Northern UP of Michigan was one of my favorite activities. After a torn ligament in my knee, I started hiking and backpacking. After a long distance hike on the Appalachian Trail, I appreciate how much teaching others inspires me. Now I backpack all over the country including guided Caving Trips and Backpacking Trips.
