Owen's hiking tours has been with us since the beginning and his enthusiasm and love for our region played a big part in the kids creating this club. Activist, bio-diversity student, film maker, tour guide, and an all around fabulous guy; If you haven't heard of Owen Bjorgan, and want to learn about our region, get over to his site and book a hike!
