Julie Trevelyan

Raised in the bustle of Southern California, Julie somehow became a wilderness guide in southern Utah. Since 1999, she has taken clients ages six to seventy-six hiking, backpacking, and horse packing in Utah's gorgeous red canyon deserts and high alpine meadows.

Julie has a lot of fun exploring hidden Native American ruins with her faithful canine companion, learning ancient skills such as the bow drill fire, and being a dedicated yogini. She has yet to meet a mug of good coffee that she doesn't like.

A word crafter since the second grade, Julie writes often about the American Southwest for both print and web publications. You can find her blogging at http://www.wildgirlwriting.com/
