About this Event
The Wild Wanderers Hiking Club invites people of all ages to explore the St. Croix and Namekagon Riverway through guided hikes in some of the most beautiful lands that define our region. We strive to encourage a love of the outdoors, connections to nature, others, and ourselves, through shared appreciation for our natural environment.
It may be hot out, but it's still a great time to get together and hike along the beautiful St. Croix River! Join us at Arcola Bluffs Day Use Area, a wonderful trail area managed by our friends at the National Park Service.
Meet your Wild Wanderers hiking team! Each hike will be lead by one, or more, of our dedicated staff:
Wendy has been with Wild Rivers Conservancy since 2021 as the Community Engagement Manager and has over two decades of experience in environmental education. She served as a hiking guide and regional leader with She Ascends Hiking and Wellness for five years.
Owen has been planning and leading events as the Outdoor Program Coordinator at the Conservancy since 2024. Previously he has worked as an outdoor guide leading canoe and backpacking expeditions throughout North America, and as an adaptive ski instructor in the mountains of Colorado. He is a certified Wilderness First Responder and trained in risk management for a multitude of outdoor settings.
October is the Conservancy's Outdoor Program Specialist and an avid outdoorsman throughout the midwest. He has been kayaking and fishing since his youth, and adventured up and down the coast from Washington to Alaska. He now resides in the St. Croix valley and has years of experience guiding people throughout his favorite places along the Riverway.
