How Happy Tails Started
Carly Johnson is a self-starter who is born adventurer! Her backpacking career began as an inexperienced amateur in 2016 when she took her first steps (with a massive backpack) on the Pacific Crest Trail. Against the odds, she completed all 2560 miles from Mexico to Canada. This adventure, and the people and generosity she encountered, forever changed her view of life and inspired a new passion.
She returned to the trail in 2017, this time to hike the 500 miles on the Colorado Trail. After a two-year injury recovery and multiple surgeries, she returned again and completed the trail in 2019.
With nearly 4000 miles on her feet of experience, Carly decided to take a different adventure and start an educational business here in Columbus to empower other amateur/beginner hikers and backpackers to get outside confidently and safely.
Happy Trail Adventures is named after the phrase commonly used on trails, “Happy Trails”. It’s a way of saying best wishes, enjoy your hike, and find the beauty of the wilderness and within yourself. Happy Trail Adventures aims to bring this mantra into the educational classes and group overnights to build a community of adventurers and create life-long relationships with like-minded people.
