"Man does not simply exist, but always decides what his existence will be, what he will become in the next moment."

THE EXTRAORDINARY GUIDES OF GET OUTSIDE

Get Outside with Jenna Nodding
WHO IS JENNA?
Founder/Owner and Guide
​

From a young age, Jenna has appreciated the feeling of moving her body and the satisfaction that came from self-propelled activities. Feeding off of the energy of wild places she has spent five months following the white blazes along the Appalachian Trail, two weeks hiking across Baffin Island, 15 days exploring the high altitude passes of the Nepalese Himalayas, and over 500 nights sleeping in her tent. She lives a life creating adventure and opportunity and is passionate about teaching others how to find and create their own adventure. Always in search of an adventure she can be found anywhere but indoors!

Currently, she resides in Canmore, AB, balancing guiding and working as a physiotherapist. Hiking and backpacking fill her summer months and snowshoeing takes over in the winter. The majority of her work consists of private guiding, however hiking and backpacking trips are also provided to help you prepare to tackle the trail on your own.
