Kelly Anderson: Wilderness Guide

Kelly is a wilderness guide for our guided and supported treks, mountaineering, and high school groups.

Kelly grew up in Colorado and attended the University of Colorado at Boulder. She graduated with degrees in Psychology, Geography, and Philosophy, and spent most of her free time learning how to climb.

She spent a few years working at a local climbing gym and traveling throughout the United States in search of great climbing. Since then, she has worked as an interpretative ranger for the U.S. Forest Service, and as a member of the AmeriCorps Emergency Response Team. She is trained in wildland firefighting, trail construction, and as a sawyer for the U.S. Forest Service.

She is passionate about learning, both about herself and about other cultures, communities, and environments, and is thrilled to continue living and exploring places abroad.
