NATURE SOCIAL CLUB
New Name, Same Game.
So what gives with the relaunch? It's simple. Over the years we've developed a close knit community with our fellow Wild Seekers. People that shared in our passion for protecting nature and embracing an adventurous lifestyle. In a sense you've all become our family….our nature social club.
What's new?
Quarantine got us going a little crazy. So crazy that we went over the deep end and created a weird, psychedelic nature cult, with a mission to make an impact. Inspired by the Waves, Summits, and Sand. Our nature culture creates adventure wear for the Wild.
We believe all apparel brands should do better, and we've spent years sourcing the highest quality premium, eco-friendly tees, hats, and sunglasses. Materials like organic cotton, bamboo, hemp, and upcycled poly. And we give 10% to nature initiatives that benefit our oceans & wildlands.
Check out our newest collection that just launched, and stay tuned as we continue to launch new products over the coming weeks.

How to bring the outdoors, indoors during covid-19 social isolation
Tired of hitting "next episode" on Netflix? Missing that feeling of being outdoors? We get it.
We know, social isolation can be exhausting. Who would have thought couch quarantining would be such a drag? Well we're here to help you keep your sanity during these strange times.
1. Camp out, indoors.
And we mean get weird with it. Set the mood lights, break out the tent, and have a full on nature camping experience right in your home.
2. Cook ultra basic campfire food.
Because nothing says nature like a good ol' can of beans and granola bars. Bonus points if you break out travel eating utensils.
3. Take a hike with a daypack and treadmill.
This is for those that have access to a treadmill in their home. Why not dress the part and throw on that daypack to give yourself a challenge, simulate the experience of backcountry camping, and build up those muscles for when you're really ready to hit the trails this summer.
4. Alexa, play nature sounds.
Hey we're serious….try the "nature sound" Spotify playlist to put your mind at ease and help visualize being outdoors.
5. Throw nature on the TV.
Even better, park your indoor tent in front of the TV with a nature doc playing to really get that immersive experience. Hey we never said you couldn't get a little creative.

Apparel for Good: Behind the Scenes with Wild and co
Tell us about yourself! What’s your background and what do you do?
Hey I'm Scott, the owner of Wild and Co. I started this company with a simple goal, to create a brand that made a positive impact. With any new business you have to learn to become an expert on many things quickly, but I've been fortunate enough to work a career in marketing, design, and software development that has made this process very rewarding. We do have a small team that takes an all-hands approach, but in general, I'll handle a lot of the graphic design, conceptualizing, web design, and marketing strategies.
How did you learn your craft? Tell us about your first finished product.
Luckily I've had experience developing many brands in the past working at marketing agencies. But the most important thing was that we were driven by a passion to do something positive. One of the most challenging and rewarding processes was working with our design team and sourcing materials and factories around the world to truly create amazing products made from eco-materials. We are driven to be a leader in stylish, sustainable apparel.
Where does the name of your business come from?
Our name "Wild and Co" represents the simplicity of the outdoors and the people you enjoy it with. "Mind the Wild" is our slogan that champions our eco-positive movement to embrace the wild through adventure, stewardship, and sustainable apparel. We like to think of ourselves as the eco/adventure lifestyle brand.
“ONE OF THE MOST CHALLENGING AND REWARDING PROCESSES WAS WORKING WITH OUR DESIGN TEAM AND SOURCING MATERIALS AND FACTORIES AROUND THE WORLD TO TRULY CREATE AMAZING PRODUCTS MADE FROM ECO-MATERIALS.”
How long does it take to make your product and what’s involved in the process?
Being a completely eco-friendly brand, it actually can take a long time for us to develop new products. Right now we have our three main lines of Apparel, Headwear, and Sunglasses; all that require a unique process and manufacturers. Eco-friendly materials are not always traditionally the cheapest, which is why you'll find other brands have been slow to adopt. So at times it can take months and plenty of headaches finding and working with factories to create that perfect product that is eco-friendly and at a price point that works.
Where does your inspiration come from?
I have an advertising background working in the tourism industry in Florida, where I was made hyper aware of the environmental challenges that many public lands face. Recognizing these same pain points in Colorado is what drove us to start a brand that would try to change the conversation. We knew there were people like us that craved a modern outdoor brand that would champion a positive message and hopefully promote others to take better care of the environment.
What’s your favorite product that you’ve created?
We have some awesome manufacturing partners that have helped us create unique ways to use sustainable materials. We're really proud of our hats that use cork and burlap, our sunglasses that use a blend of wood, and especially our shirts that use 6 plastic bottles shredded into a resin and mixed with a cotton poly. Our new pullover hoodies have been a big hit this winter and they prominently feature our "Mind the Wild" slogan.
What question do you get asked the most at pop-up markets?
The question we get asked about most at markets tends to be what exactly is the impact we provide for the environment. We actively work with non-profit partners that impact National Parks, Forests, Wildlife, and Oceans. Not only do we educate our followers frequently on the importance of these issues via social media and our website, but we also allow each customer to choose the impact they want to make when they purchase an item. We donate 5% of total sales and upon checkout we prompt our customers to select the cause they want it to go to. It's an easy way for anyone to get involved and really make a difference for the environment.

Apparel with an Impact - Planet First Materials
Be Good To The Planet
The fashion and textile industries are one of the largest culprits of pollution in the world.
Traditional clothing produces not only a large amount of excessive material waste, but over half of clothing produced ends up in a landfill within a year. The production of standard cotton shirts creates a horrific amount of pesticides and toxins, and also requires oceans of water to produce.
Materials We Use
Organic Cotton
Not only does our organic cotton shirts feel softer than standard cotton, but they have less impact on the environment. No toxic chemicals are used in the growing of organic cotton and it has significantly less water and energy needs. These shirts also lack the toxic dyes and treatments of your standard cotton shirt.
Sustainable Bamboo
Sustainable, ultra-soft, eco-friendly; bamboo has it all. Requiring 1/3 of the water needed of standard cotton, this naturally self replenishing resource is also biodegradable. The benefits of our bamboo tees are that they are literally the softest option available, antibacterial, and moisture wicking.
Organic Wool
Naturally sustainable, biodegradable, and less impactful to produce. Wool that is harvested from livestock has been around for generations in the textile industry. Durable,
breathable. moisture wicking, and great at temperature regulating, it's a good alternate to lighter fabrics.
Sustainable Hemp
One of the newest sustainable fabrics available is Hemp. This fabric uses less water than traditional cotton to produce and does not require any harmful pesticides to produce. Our hemp fabric feels ultra-soft and provides a high-end look and feel compared regular tees.
Recycled Cotton/Poly Blend
Using a unique process that eliminates 6 plastic bottles per piece of apparel made, our recycled poly blend is the ultimate in eco-friendly material. It's as simple as “Process, Spin, Create”. We source plastic bottles from landfills, PROCESS them into a unique resin, SPIN it with a combination of poly/cotton, and CREATE an ultra soft fabric that is also the standard in eco-friendly apparel. The best part, our recycled cotton/poly blend is one of our most popular due to the ultra-soft feel and flexibility.
We're on a mission to disrupt the standards in apparel manufacturing and prove that there's a better way.
We love hearing from our customers how impressed they are with the softness of the fabric, which feels like a traditional tri-blend fabric. We are dedicated to always being at the forefront of using sustainable materials and creating unique products with them that never compromise on style.
So join the #MindtheWild movement, and help us make an impact for the environment.
New Eco-Friendly, Sustainable Outdoor Apparel Launch
This month we were proud to launch our new collection inspired by the wild and made ECO-FRIENDLY. We traveled the globe over the past year sourcing the best quality and most sustainable materials to incorporate into our newest designs. Made for the wild, inspired by style, benefiting Nature.
Our tees and hoodies incorporate a perfect blend of recycled material and organic cotton to create a blend of durable and sustainable apparel. We used a process that converts recycled plastic bottles into a resin that is blended with cotton and polyester to create a sustainable and soft fabric. Each shirt uses about 6 plastic bottles, which makes a huge impact in combating the current plastic epidemic.
Who We Are
Our mission is to empower a generation to not only care about the environment, but also to realize the benefits of spending more time exploring the wild. We do this through our eco positive slogan "Mind the Wild" and by encouraging environmental stewardship. A simple concept, "Mind the Wild" is a call to action for a generation to take ownership over our footprint on the planet.
We also take an active stance in benefiting nature where it needs the most help. Each quarter we partner with a different non-profit to donate 10% of our proceeds, while also encouraging individuals and businesses to join in the effort. More than just tree planting or trail cleanups, we are making a difference across the globe in National Parks, the Amazon Rainforest, National Forests, and more.
Sustainability
Our passion is in creating the ultimate in eco-friendly, sustainable apparel. Our team has traveled the globe in search of materials that yield the best combination of sustainability, function and comfort. We believe that using the perfect blend of recycled material can create a better product, that's better for you and better for the planet. Shirts and tops made from recycled plastic bottles, headwear made with sustainable cork and burlap, and sunglasses made with bamboo and renewable wood sources.
Exploring the Unknown
The unknown is defined as the unfamiliar, undiscovered, explored, identified, or ascertained. We’ve all been there at some point in our lives. For each and every one of us, it can mean something vastly different. The unknown can show itself in different scenarios big and small.
When I look back at this year (2019), the year has been one of experimentation, ups and downs, pushing my limits physically, mentally, emotionally, spiritually, and intellectually. What is interesting is that through all this adventuring, I started to realize and accept areas of myself that maybe in the past I overlooked or was disconnected from.
This discovery is what’s so powerful about traveling and exploring both near and afar. It changes and expands our mind, body, and soul. It reveals different elements about us. We start looking at ourselves not as something that needs to be hacked, fixed, and corrected all the time, but as something much deeper. We begin to shift towards a place of acceptance in all areas of our lives. We begin to face ourselves instead of running away. This acceptance helps us navigate through the unknown and complexities of life in a more resilient and compassionate manner.
What is also profound about traveling and adventuring is the level of unpredictability and unfamiliarity that we learn to embrace in every turn of the way. We never know what is around the next corner. Will the sunrise dance on the horizon? Will the moss shimmer on a rotting log as we hike by?
I want you to look back on your previous adventures. Some of the common decisions that we commonly face are situations like where we will get healthy, quality food or where will we stock up on clean water, or simply finding our way back to the trailhead in the dark or hiking in adverse conditions or bushwhacking in the backcountry. There is an element of fear and worry that comes with traveling/adventuring in all the different types of situations we typically face. But I believe deep down, we instinctually crave these feelings because they keep us on our toes and bring out the best in us. We are fully present with what we are doing in the NOW.
These deep, enriching experiences create this level of engagement and presence in us. It expands our awareness. It begs us to ask more questions, to get more curious with what’s out there, to explore the unknown and to go further than we ever thought possible.

Save the Rainforest: Mind the Wild Project Donates to Earth Alliance
The Rainforest is on Fire
Each quarter members of the "Mind the Wild Project" donate to a nature non-profit in need. This quarter we are donating to Earth Alliance to assist with the Amazon Rainforest fires.
Why Earth Alliance
Earth Alliance, addresses the urgent threats to our planet’s life support systems – born out of the shared passion of its founding co-chairs: environmental activist and Academy Award®-winning actor Leonardo DiCaprio, businesswoman and philanthropist Laurene Powell Jobs, and investor and philanthropist Brian Sheth.
The emergency
The Amazon rainforest is on fire, with more than 9,000 wildfires scorching delicate, irreplaceable landscapes across Brazil this week — year to date, more than 72,000 fires have been reported by Brazil’s National Institute for Space Research (INPE). This is a significant increase from the 40,000 fires in Brazil at this point last year.
Why is this happening?
An unprecedented surge in deforestation, which leads to a drier overall region. This means less rain and dry grasslands that, once they start burning, result in fires that are nearly impossible to control.
How does this start?
Large-scale cattle operations and feed crops — much of it illegal — along with some impacts from logging, are the primary drivers of this deforestation.
What does this mean for the planet?
The destruction of the Amazon rainforest is rapidly releasing carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, destroying an ecosystem that absorbs millions of tons of carbon emissions every year and is one of the planet’s best defenses against the climate crisis.
In addition, indigenous peoples’ land covers about 110 million hectares of the Brazilian Amazon, making the region critical not just for biodiversity conservation and climate change mitigation, but also for the cultural survival, self-determination, and wellbeing of the Amazon's indigenous peoples.
What can you do?

@whiskey_and_woods
My name is Brittany. I was Indiana born and raised but my heart has always been in the mountains. As soon as I graduated from college I packed up my car and made the drive out to Colorado. I spent many years working jobs just to make ends meet and then decided to go back to school to get my Master’s degree in clinical mental health. While I loved helping others find their path, I still felt as though I hadn’t truly found mine.
I decided to take my future into my own hands and make the mountains and being in Mother Nature a priority. This lead me to start my dog hiking company, Take A Hike, and Western Pine, my photography company, where I focus on adventure elopements. We can’t control what life hands us but we can take steps to create our own bliss. My path just happens to be found in the mountains.
Hiking Sky Pond in RMNP
Hiking Sky Pond – An adventurous yet accessible adventure in Rocky Mountain National Park
Rocky Mountain National Park (RMNP) is a wonderful outdoor playground. The options for hikers are diverse in both their scenery and their difficulty. Many novice hikers gravitate towards the renowned trio of lakes found at the Bear Lake trailhead – Nymph, Dream, and Emerald. At the other end of the spectrum is Longs Peak, a strenuous yet thrilling adventure best saved for those who have significant experience with high altitude hiking. One of my favorite hikes in the park is the hike to Sky Pond. In the right conditions, this hike can strike the perfect balance between the accessibility of the lakes hike and the thrill of Longs Peak. This makes this trail a great stepping stone for anyone who has grown comfortable with the basics of hiking and is now looking to get into more challenging distances and terrain.
Hike Overview:
Location: Glacier Gorge trail head, Rocky Mountain National Park
Distance: 8 Miles round trip (out and back)
Elevation: Starting elevation is about 9,000 feet, total elevation gain is about 1,800 feet
Difficulty: Mostly Class 2 hiking with a brief period of class 3 during the ascent from Mill’s Lake to The Loch. No technical hiking required in good conditions.
Gear: The ten essentials are always recommend. Hiking poles can be a big help for stability. Traction such as Yaktrax can be very beneficial for the ascent between Mill’s Lake and The Loch, especially if there is any snow or ice. Waterproof hiking boots are recommended year round in RMNP, but especially for this hike as it travels near many different bodies of water.
What to know before you go:
- This hike is located inside of Rocky Mountain National Park and will require either an annual membership or a day pass to access the trailhead. Annual memberships pay for themselves after only a couple of days. They are highly recommended as a great way to support the park.
- The Glacier Gorge trail head offers very limited parking. It will fill up early during the summer. You can also park at Bear Lake and hike down to this trail head, or make use of the park shuttle.
- Rocky Mountain National Park does not allow dogs on any trails.
- This hike becomes very challenging in winter months or after any significant snow fall. Do not attempt this hike under these conditions unless you are experienced with (and equipped for) winter hiking and ice climbing.
- This hike is therefore easiest to complete from June through September, but always check the forecast to get an idea of current conditions.
- Summer months bring regular afternoon thunderstorms to the park. This hike contains a significant portion above the tree line where it is very dangerous to be caught during a storm. Plan to complete this hike as early in the day as possible. You should be descending back to the trail head by noon.
Trail Guide:
This trail will start with a peaceful walk through the forest. You will soon hear waterfalls in the distance, and after about a mile you will come to Alberta Falls. This is a very scenic spot that makes for a perfect first break. Many families and other visitors will stop around here, meaning that the trail becomes more secluded as you push on. You will also notice a marked increase in the incline from this point forward until you reach the junction with the North Longs Peak Trail. This is nothing too hard, pace yourself and make use of those hiking poles if you brought them. Keep to the westward trail (hiker’s right) to continue towards The Loch. The trail will take you through a breathtaking valley in this section. Enjoy the views! Continue on until you reach The Loch. The Northeast end of the lake offers more great views and is a perfect place for a second stop. The toughest part of the hike is coming up, don’t be afraid to catch your breath. You will skirt around The Loch to the north over flat and often wet terrain. You brought those waterproof shoes right?
Finally we arrive at the most challenging (and exciting!) part of the hike. You will be ascending a steep and rocky section just to the right of Timberline Falls. This area can be very challenging with ice and snow, and will almost always be wet. Use traction and your poles to slowly climb along the side of the falls. Take your time and test every foothold before you commit to a full step. Using your hands makes progress easier at several points. Personally, I use extendable hiking poles for this hike and keep them fully retracted at this part. This allows me to easily alternate between using the pole or my hand (with the pole secured to my wrist) as needed.
If you take your time and make careful progress you will find yourself at the top of Timberline Falls in no time. Congratulations, the hard part is over! Enjoy your new views of the Lake of Glass, which has been obstructed by the falls until this point. Navigating around The Lake of Glass is an unforgettable experience. As you near Sky Pond and the end of the hike, a massive and very distinctive mountain formation known as “The Sharkstooth” will open up before you to the right. You will understand the name as soon as you see it. I really enjoyed how this formation remains hidden until the very end of the hike. It makes a great reward for your efforts. If conditions still appear favorable, you can rest a long while beneath the spires of The Sharkstooth at the shores of Sky Pond. There is an overhang of rock on the Northeast corner of the lake that makes for great sun bathing - just make sure you have been applying your sunscreen!
You will follow the same route back to the trailhead when you are ready to head down. Once again, be very careful and deliberate as you descend back to the base of Timberline Falls. Many people feel that the descent if more challenging than the climb up. Be sure that you have saved some energy. Take care to enjoy views of the valley that you came from at the top of the falls before your descend. Once you are back to The Loch you will find that the rest of the hike is straightforward and goes quickly. Hopefully you will feel that you have just completed an epic adventure, and I suggest that you celebrate accordingly.
Additional Resources:
All visitors to RMNP should abide by the principles of Leave No Trace. It is important that we leave this wonderous resource in pristine condition for future generations to enjoy as we have.
Never hike without the ten essentials. This is a longer and more challenging hike, making these tools especially important.
Always practice sound judgment and hiking safety practices. Learn more here:

Hiking in Sedona, Arizona
From hiking to jeep excursions and everything in between the adventurous desert landscape of Sedona, Arizona has something to offer every outdoor enthusiast. Endless amounts of hiking trails give visitors plenty of options for sight-seeing and outdoor activities. Most tourists visit Sedona to enjoy the natural beauty of the surrounding red rock buttes, while some like to enjoy uptown Sedona’s vibrant art galleries and restaurants.
In this blog specifically, I will be highlighting the different hiking trails I took when exploring in Sedona and why I think they are the best trails to get the most out of your trip.
Seven Sacred Pools - Photo by: Mark Munson @markonthemove
Seven Sacred Pools
Trail Length: 1.1 Miles
Trail Type: Out & Back
Elevation Gain: 108 ft.
Trail Difficulty: Easy
Seven Sacred Pools is accessed via Soldier Pass Trail and is a very easy hike and offers amazing views of the surrounding buttes and unique rock sculptures. Each pool was naturally carved into the rock from a seasonal stream and is a crucial water source for the local wildlife. Hiking to the pools is short and forgiving but the pools can be easy to miss if you aren’t paying attention. The pools are located just off of the trail to the left and make a great photography subject. Depending on when you visit, the hike can be easier or more difficult if you visit during winter months. Winter months bring a decreased water level due to lack of precipitation, but the most ideal time to visit the pools is in the spring when abundant run-off water fills the pools creating cascading waterfalls from one pool to the next. To be assured you don’t miss the pools I recommend asking other hikers where exactly the pools are at off the trail. The parking lot for Soldier Pass Trail only has 11 spots so you may end up having to park down the road and walking a bit extra to begin the hike.
Devil’s Bridge
Trail Length: 4.2 Miles
Trail Type: Out & Back
Elevation Gain: 564 ft.
Difficulty: Easy
Devil’s Bridge is by far the most iconic hike in Sedona and is a must do if you are visiting the area. It is the largest sandstone arch in the Sedona region of the Coconino National Forest. The trailhead officially starts off of Dry Creek Road, which is one 1 after the parking lot.
If you have a 4WD vehicle you can take the unpaved section of the road for a mile, making your hike one mile shorter. If not, you will have to park and walk the unpaved section of the road until you reach the trailhead. Once at the trailhead it is a short and steep hike. The trail stays relatively flat until you reach the base of the bridge, at which point the trail starts to ascend quickly. Once atop the first natural staircase you are greeted with more panoramic desert views. After one last staircase you will be at the bridge. The views from the top of the bridge are well worth the climb up. This hike is busy year-round, so if you are trying to have this spot to yourself I highly recommend visiting during sunrise or sunset.
Cathedral Rock
Trail Length: 1.2 Miles
Trail Type: Out & Back
Elevation Gain: 744 ft.
Difficulty: Hard
Another popular hike in the Sedona area is Cathedral Rock. Best known for its sunset views, this hike can be difficult for some. Reaching the top requires some minor scrambling/rock climbing which can deter some from reaching the end of the trail. Although this trail is short, it is a steep hike the entire way up so hiking shoes are recommended for the best traction. This trail can also be difficult to lose on the way up and down so following the cairns will help you stay on trail. This is another heavily trafficked spot so if you are wanting to hike alone, a sunrise hike is suggested. Once at the top there are a few different spots you can explore. You will be greeted with amazing valley views as well as an up-close view of the red canyon walls. If you are visiting for sunset be sure to start the hike down before it gets dark because the descent can be tricky at night.
Bear Mountain
Trail Length: 4.3 Miles
Trail Type: Out & Back
Elevation Gain: 1,975 ft.
Difficulty: Hard
The top of Bear Mountain has some of the best views in Sedona, but the hike to get there is challenging and strenuous in spots. Because of the consistent ascent to the top, this trail is rated as difficult. The Forest Service suggests giving yourself five hours to complete this hike but you can easily spend more soaking in the views and taking photos. Much of the trail is rocky and rugged so hiking books are recommended for ankle support. Bring a lot of water because almost the entirety of the hike is unshaded. During the hike up there are a few steep ascents that are also false summits, so don’t be fooled. For those who don’t wish to conquer the entire hike, there are plenty of good turn around points. The views are scenic the entire way up and if you reach the top they really provide the true beauty of Sedona.
Wherever you go in Sedona, remember to always pack in pack out and respect the land.
