A time to think of all things to be thankful and grateful for . Happy Thanksgiving to everyone out there🦃
Almost have another season wrapped up, staying in the mountains later than usual this year and then onto the winter horse project. Lots of highs and lows and everything in between. I really need to do a better job of documenting these travels and the folks we meet along the way. From funny yoga retreat stories in the summer to a 75 yr old beast mode sheep hunter in October .

Trail cutting and more trail cutting🌲🔥. We had a lot of fire last summer and this year we are recarving our paths. It always seems like there is just never enough time to all that you want to do. It can feel defeating only making a kilometre or less in a day but one tree at a time!

🌧️Rainy skies couldn’t dampen the spirit of our Fly Fishing & Yoga Day(Flowga🐡)
With fly rods in hand and yoga mats nearby, we leaned into the rhythm of nature and the power of presence.
🎣Fly fishing, like yoga, is a meditation in motion. Both require patience, breath, and being fully in the moment—reading the water, watching your cast, tuning in to the body. Despite the weather, everyone showed up with grit and grace.
🧘🏽‍♀️We practiced yoga to warm the body, fished in the showers, and shared laughs, stories, and snacks by the river. It was a beautiful reminder that wild weather brings its own kind of magic—and that the best days aren’t always sunny.

🥂Here’s to strong casts, steady breath, and wild souls who don’t mind a little rain. 📸 .photo

Mountain Yoga Adventure Retreat Recap | July 22-28, 2025
📍 South of Watson Lake, Yukon

We just wrapped up an unforgettable Mountain Yoga Adventure Retreat, and wow—what a week. Held deep in the wilderness, this retreat brought together an incredible group of humans, all drawn to the land, the horses, and the healing.

Guests arrived and departed by floatplane or boat, then spent the week traveling on foot and horseback through wild, rugged terrain. With over 32 head of horses in total , we journeyed daily through alpine valleys, forest trails, and river crossings—each ride grounding us more deeply into the land.

Every day offered a rhythm of movement and stillness: sunrise yoga, guided meditation, river dips, journaling, and restorative moments under big northern skies. This experience pushes your edges—in the best way—physically, mentally, and spiritually.

It’s not just for yogis or horsewomen—this retreat is for everyone: anyone called to reconnect with nature, challenge themselves, and come home to their body and soul.

Join us next year!
