About

Hello! and welcome to Into the Yonder. My name is Nick and I was born in Washington D.C and raised in Northern Virginia where I reside today with my wife and three daughters. I am a local guy who graduated from George Mason University with Bachelors of Arts in Communications and a Bachelors of Science in Outdoor Recreation..

Into the Yonder is derived from my experiences on the trail. Those experiences become trail experience summaries, must visit destinations, equipment reviews all to benefit your outdoor experience. I created Into the Yonder to encourage you with the idea that the trails are for everyone, without limits of economics, prejudice and experience level. 

Thank you for visiting, I hope to see you out on the trail.

​Nick
