Every year, millions of people pack their gear and head outside to camp. It doesn’t matter who you are or where you live, there’s nothing quite like the long-lasting memories you create when you’re camping.

With too many opportunities and everyday responsibilities, we forget to realise our own capability. We create a shell around ourselves, and refuse to step out of the bubble. But, if you want to experience what life is all about, just go camping!

The First Annual Fjällräven Classic has officially made its way to the US and I am beyond thankful to have been invited out to be a part of this incredible event! Three glorious days and two nights under the glistening stars backpacking through the remote wilderness of the Colorado Rocky Mountains.
