HOMEBASE: Montreal, QC (Tiohtiá:ke/Montreal) is situated on the traditional territory of the Kanien'kehà:ka, a place which has long served as a site of meeting and exchange amongst many First Nations including the Kanien'kehá:ka of the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, Huron/Wendat, Abenaki, and Anishinaabeg. We recognize and respect the Kanien'kehà:ka as the traditional custodians of the lands and waters on which we meet today.

Q&A

Why do you love hiking?

It reveals nature's gems, each and every time. It's a great reset and way to anchor, especially as someone who has a hyperactive mind and anxious thoughts. It's also a nice way to connect with friends and meet new people.

What is your hiking essential and why?

Water and snacks (my go-to are: dried mango, and cranberries with granola) as well as my waterproof bucket hat.

Why is it important to wear the right shoes?

First for safety, comfort, and an enjoyable experience.
