Exploring the World, One Trail at a Time

Hi, I’m Skye!

I’m a rock climber, mountaineer, backpacker, and canyoneer who specializes in content creation and adventure photography. My passion is in the outdoors, and I love working with brands who specialize in outdoor gear, recreation, and travel.

My husband Garrett and I currently travel full-time, both internationally and throughout the Western US. We eloped in August of 2024 on the summit of Liberty Bell in the North Cascades, a technical alpine rock climb, and we run @theadventurearnolds together.

Throughout the past 3+ years, we have been backpacking our way through South America, including the O Circuit in Torres del Paine, climbing in Spain and Thailand, canyoning in Madeira, scuba diving in SE Asia, and are currently living out of our van, road tripping our way around the US and Canada for climbing, canyoning, hiking, trail running, and backpacking.
