I love it when I can walk away from a story assignment feeling enlightened about a topic I never even knew was an issue. My most recent story for Kinute did just that as I delve into the true complexities of wolfdogs and ownership of these unique animals.

When life’s circumstances forced Kim Renée Coté to surrender her beloved wolfdogs to Alberta’s Yamnuska Wolfdog Sanctuary, she joined a growing community of owners grappling with the unique challenges of wolfdog ownership. Faced with the brutal realities of these captivating animals, members o...

Being a female contributor to fishing magazines has not always been a smooth path so I appreciate my regular editors who recognize that credibility and grit in that space comes in all forms...even from former television news anchors. I am especially proud when outlets like Catfish NOW Magazine dedicate an entire issue each year to women who get out there and enjoy fishing. Tight lines ladies and thank you to the fabulous editors who celebrate the great stories that we can do together.

Women in catfishing are making waves! Check out this month’s issue of CatfishNOW to see how women are dominating the catfishing scene. From competitive tournaments to community events, these incredible anglers are proving that catfishing isn't just a man’s game.

The news journalist in me desires to always uncover what's beyond the surface when I take assignments and on occasion I find far more than I ever imagined existed...this is one of those stories.

Fishing the Bow River for its renowned brown and rainbow trout offers more than just a thrilling catch; it opens a window into the rich cultural traditions of Alberta’s Indigenous Peoples. Guided by Quinn Soonias, anglers not only learn the art of fly fishing but also partake in meaningful customs...

A little bit of an "EEK" and a "YAY" moment today as I officially kick off the build of a brand new website. The brain work and digging deep to determine how I want to shift a bit professionally have been underway for months. I think it was this day in January surrounded by the cold and desolate beauty of Antarctica that I decided I needed to reinvest in myself to compete with the crippling blow that AI and constance Google algorithms are delivering to writers and creatives. The website build will take time but it's a necessary undertaking that is both exciting and anxious as we create it.

I live and breathe adventure so I take extra joy in the assignments that let me kick things up a notch. My latest story for Kinute is a deep-dive into the uniqueness behind summer dog sledding in Alberta as a way to keep these prime athletes in shape when there is no snow on the ground.

Please feel free to share this fun story. Be sure to LIKE and follow the Kinute Facebook and Instagram pages and sign up for the wonderful and inspirational newsletter.

Snowy Owl Sled Dog Tours offers a unique glimpse into this traditional practice that has evolved into a beloved recreational activity for both dogs and people. Whether navigating the rugged Canadian Rockies in winter or training with custom-built non-motorized carts in summer, these powerful sled do...

I'm often asked about the most unique foods I've eaten --or attempted to out of courtesy -- in my travels. Thank you Martha Chapman for including me in your recent article about some of the more unique "culinary delights" around the world. Some come with more memories (and gag reflexes) than others. Great piece!

What a fun way to explore Calgary...in a sidecar with Rocky Mountain Sidecar Adventures. You get open-air views and find out about all of the best sights in the city. The view from the hilltop over the downtown skyline and the Bow River was awesome. What a creative move Tourism Calgary!

I love learning new outdoor adventures so being able to learn archery today while on assignment in Calgary, Alberta was epic. I channeled my inner Katniss Everdeen at Painted Warriors ranch at the base of the snow-capped Canadian Rocky Mountains. This is NOT a live animal. It is one of many artificial targets in the woods used to train on archery skills by my indigenous guide.

Enjoyed a fabulous day fishing on the Bow River with Quinn Sonia's of Drift Out West Fly Fishing. Despite quite gusty winds at times (as evidenced by my flying hair barometer) and a slower bite, we caught a few white fish and a large rainbow trout. The day was stunning and for anglers this river can be experienced in a more wilderness setting (about an hour from Calgary) and easily accessible close to the city. This scenic experience with an indigenous Cree guide was special. I missed a few takes because I was so in awe at the peacefulness of the snow capped mountains in the distance and the calm of the spruce trees surrounding us.

Excited to share my recent story for Kinute as I take a deep-dive into finding out how one of the tiniest mammals that most people never see that has the greatest impact on coastal health. Please enjoy learning about the adorable Alabama Beach Mouse and please share the story with those who will also enjoy it.

Despite their elusive nature, the endangered Alabama beach mouse is vital for coastal dune health, preventing erosion and supporting the ecosystem. Discover how dedicated conservation efforts are fighting to protect this tiny yet significant mammal amidst natural and human-induced threats.

WOW!....what a perfect day...DCD selected by American journalist and travel writer Anietra Hamper to supply images of our stunning coastline.

As an outdoor and fishing journalist it is always an honor to be tapped by top publications and editors who trust my expertise. I was one of the fishing experts that USA Today relied on to develop this impressive list of the best rivers for fly fishing in the United States for their 2024 Reader's Choice contest. This was a tough one to narrow down for nominations but it was a joy to join the USA Today team to develop it. Voting ends June 12.

Do you remember the devastation caused by the Deepwater Horizon oil spill off the Gulf Shores? What's happened in the 14 years since and what's become of the destruction it caused to the environment and marine life in a place with such a complex ecosystem? In my latest deep-dive story for Kinute, I head to the Gulf Shores of Alabama to uncover some of the unexpected "positive" outcomes resulting from the worst oil spill disaster in marine drilling history.

A lot has changed 14 years after the oil spill that wreaked havoc on so many lives. Learn about the restoration efforts that have happened since that have given hope to residents.

Today, I share my recent story for Kinute that dives deep into the tireless dedication required from sea turtle volunteers along Alabama's Gulf Shores. During a recent visit on assignment I was able to truly appreciate the thousands of volunteer hours that happen every nesting season to give these tiny creatures the best chance of survival.

"They say it takes a village to raise a child, but it takes an army of volunteers for sea turtle survival."

I’m so very excited to share this story on my Antarctica expedition that just published today for Kinute. It was an experience that forced me to reach deep as a journalist to truly capture in words what I can only describe as a unique emotional journey. Thank you to the stellar expedition team on the Scenic Eclipse for taking me beyond the Antarctic circle.

The first time an iceberg floats by in open water it’s as if Antarctica is opening its door, gently easing adventurers into the frozen world that few have been to and even fewer understand. Every human interaction with the continent by land, air or sea is carefully orchestrated and managed. Visito...

What an epic night of shark fishing with Coastal WorldWide Gulf Shores, Alabama. Thanks guys for the awesome video capture of the experience and for an unforgettable night. Thanks also to Gulf Shores and Orange Beach Tourism for the introduction to this top-notch operation.

I love fishing in remote destinations around the world and as some of these unspoiled places become more appealing to travelers looking for off-the-grid experiences, there is a greater need for balance between tourism and environmental protection to keep them pristine. My latest published story looked deeper into that delicate balance. Thank you to my friends and the best jungle fishing pals Tom Armitage and Emily Armitage for letting me showcase your experience in Guyana and for my friend Navin L. Roopnarain for playing such an important role in the efforts that I highlight in the article.

Kinute follows anglers deep into Guyana's rainforest, discovering the balance between tourism, culture preservation, and environmental sustainability that make it the ideal an off-the-grid adventure hotspot.

Excited to have been selected as one of Newsweek Magazine's outdoor experts to select the best whitewater rafting adventures to include in its Readers' Choice Awards contest that runs until April 18th. It makes me want to get out there on the rapids!

Grab your adventure-seeking friends and book one wild ride with one of these highly rated whitewater rafting tours.

Thank you to the Central Ohio Fly Fishers club for having me as the guest speaker this week to talk about destination angling and how the opportunities have vastly expanded for anglers close to home and around the world. It was a fun evening!

While it's a thrill to fish for some of the biggest species in the world, and around the world, the truth is...it's grueling. This is something you never see behind the awesome photos. My recent "big fish training" incorporates cardio, rowing, EMOM workouts, circuit training, strength training and pilates to better take on these species that are as much a 1-5x my bodyweight while fighting them in rapids, ocean current and against their supreme home-field advantage.

Women have smaller physical stature and upper body strength than men to begin with and I've had some extremely tough challenges recently with giant species (including a current shoulder injury from the sandbar shark below). It's time to up my game in the gym. Whatever your goals are - nothing is out of reach if you put in the work to achieve them! I've got this.

02/29/2024

In a month capped by editors of two major national publications, a book publisher and the publisher of a new outdoor outlet for me reached out to ME to be a contributor for outdoor & fishing stories and content...I have to call that a win. For those not in the freelance writing space...it's hard work to build relationships over many years with editors and to grow your niche as an expert. While not all things are opportunities are a good fit it sure feels good to get those kinds of emails.

I have a few stories coming out on fishing in the next few weeks but I am especially proud to share this one about how anglers play a vital role in species conservation that was just published this week. It was a treat to work with so many valuable angling experts on this story.

...they are the boots-on-the-ground, eyes and ears to aid in data collection and they are the most passionate advocates for species’ protection. Just getting on the water to fish, no matter where it is in the world, has a greater impact beyond the joy of just catching a personal best.

It's always cool hitting new journalistic milestones and I've just submitted the most intensive travel story that I've ever written. The more than 3000 word article submitted with over 90 photographs and 4 pages of captions was the wonderful result of a nearly four-month process of research, interviews, writing, photographing, editing and a 6000 mile journey to cover it in one of the most pristine and remote regions of the world. This was no ordinary travel article...but one that allowed me to get deep into my journalistic core. This photo was taken while on-location trying to work offline and remotely with handwritten notes and a bluetooth keyboard for my phone.
