Bri is a Pacific Northwest native. She grew up picking huckleberries barefoot, climbing trees and catching frogs in the foothills of the Cascades.

She is spending her adulthood rewilding herself and working to create community around the importance of Nature connection. Raising her own children in Seattle, Bri has made it a priority to provide opportunity for children in her community to experience and connect with the natural world in an urban setting.

Bri is a Wilderness First Responder, an Anake/Immersion graduate through Wilderness Awareness School and a certified Wildlife Tracker.  She is a life long student of the earth and a community builder.

In her free time, Bri volunteers with Conservation Northwest and the Community Wildlife Monitoring Project (CWMP), enjoys cold plunges, foraging for wild edibles and reading field guides. Any given evening, you can find Bri building fires and cooking over them with the other wildlings in her life.

Dougie was raised running wild in the oxfordshire countryside, in the days before cell phones, and when there were only three channels on a black and white TV.

Dougie moved to the USA in 1984, and spent a decade as a ski instructor in Colorado. He has explored many different places, and done many different things with his time on earth.

Over the years, Dougie has worked as a camp counselor, home care aid and pastry chef. Dougie is an Anake graduate through the wilderness Awareness School and has practiced massage therapy. He is incredibly rooted in nature connection and is highly skilled in the art of creating Fire.

Dougie has come to see his place in life as a tracker, an observer who finds the absolute majority of what he witnesses to be inexplicable and insane. He is always able to find his way out of any forest, but would easily prefer to stay within them.
