My name is Vanessa, hiker at heart & story teller behind Forever She Wanders. I find passion in getting outdoors, exploring bucketlist destinations, and creating memories that will last a lifetime.

They say you should never give up on something that you cannot go a day without thinking about and well, third times a charm, right?! 😅⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Finally made it up to see the upper lakes in this area and it surely did not disappoint!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ What is one thing you cannot go a day without thinking about? I'm always looking out for my next adventure!⁠ #ForeverSheWanders⁠

Middle of summer and there's still some snowy Sierra trails out there & I ain't even mad about it.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Still all smiles after a quick overnighter this weekend that involved lots of scrambling, pretty lakes and no mosquitoes! #ForeverSheWanders⁠

Life is pretty awesome once you start living it on purpose. So, what does that mean? I guess it means that everyday I have a choice and I choose to do the things that make me happy. And guess what?- So do you! ✨ #ForeverSheWanders

Sometimes you just need to disconnect and enjoy your own company. ✨⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ NEW ON TH E BLOG: Of course, most backpacking tips begin with the instruction of never going alone, but once you’ve successfully completed your first solo trip, the feeling of accomplishment is inevitable!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ I try to plan a solo backpacking trip once a year and if i’m being completely honest- it never gets easier, but it does get better. I find that it’s important for me to break away on these solo trips once in awhile to not only enjoy my own company, but brush up on my backcountry skills, learn more about myself & my weaknesses and all while building self-confidence.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ The rewards for solo hiking are well worth the challenges that come along with hiking alone and when fully prepared, one night alone in the backcountry can change your life forever. ♡ . . . Does solo hiking/backpacking sound like something you’d like to try? #ForeverSheWanders .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ #HerWanderfulLife #findyourbackcountry #solobackpacking #takemebackpacking #sheexplores #dirtbagdarling #wondermore #iamtb #mountainstories #easternsierra #likeamountaingirl #theoutbound #adventureenthusiasts #seeyououtthere #explore #feedyouradventure #getoutstayout #hiked #naturegramy ##liveintensely #keepitwild #outdoorgirl #alpingirls #rawcalifornia #womeninthewild #greettheoutdoors #hikingtheglobe #adventureeverywhere #backcountry⁠⠀ ⁠⠀

This past weekend I enjoyed my first solo Sierra adventure and it was just about everything that I needed. I had not been on a solo backpacking adventure in quite some time, so off to the Sierra I went.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Not scoring the permit I initially wanted, I opted for a place somewhat familiar. Having been here just two weeks ago with an entirely new playground to explore, I was excited to be back on my own terms.⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Solo adventuring is fun sometimes. I really try to plan a trip at least once a year. It's that badass feeling I enjoy knowing that I can carry my own weight if needed. It's also a time to build self-confidence, test your backcountry skills and learn all about your weaknesses!⁠⠀ ⁠⠀ Though full of content and in a complete state of solitude, I truly missed the company & having someone there to share my snacks. ♡ ⁠ #ForeverSheWanders⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ .⁠⠀ #HerWanderfulLife #findyourbackcountry @backcountry #wilderness #naturegramy #theoutbound #mountainadventures #whyihike #peoplewhoadventure #forgeyourownpath #mountaingirls #wondermore #takemebackpacking #goatworthy #idhikethat #ourcamplife #themountainsarecalling #hooverwilderness #explore #mountainstories #backpackerstory #trailchat #thegreatoutdoors #welivetoexplore #womeninthewild #sheadventures #alpinelakes #liveoutdoors #allaboutadventures #borntoroam⁠
