It’s been 3.5 months since I left my home in Saskatchewan and made my way to sunny California in my wheelchair accessible campervan. Every day I’m discovering more and more reasons to fall in love with this adventurous lifestyle. What daring thing will you do today?

Figured I’d share this for #tbt...I recently received copies of my Paralympic races and was able to watch my Athens 400m for the first time! Gave me goosies!! Quite the difference between our Sydney photo finishes.

Happy Thanksgiving! 🍁🇨🇦 Fall is my favourite time of year to hit the road! Colorful scenery, quiet campgrounds, and cozy campfires… who says RV camping has to end with summer? 🚐🍂

It’s always a little intimidating being the first adaptive mountain biker on a trail, but I’m learning that sometimes I just need to trust my @bowheadcorp bike and let it do it’s thang!💁🏻‍♀️ [video description: a woman on a three wheeled adaptive mountain bike pedals across a narrow bridge and a tight corner] #amtb #adaptivemountainbiking #accessibleoutdoors taken in Northgate Trails Dauphin by @keepinitwheel306

My campervan, Mojo, has been adapted to make solo travel work for me. 🚐
I use hand controls to drive, a wheelchair lift to get inside the van, a bench that doubles as an elevator to get me up to my high bed, and a pull-down shelf that brings things within reach. That high bed also gives me enough storage underneath for some pretty important cargo!

My mountain bike, surfboard and other adaptive gear come along for the ride, giving me more ways to explore the outdoors.

The best RV setup is the one that works for you, your needs, and the adventures you want to have.

Wander dreamed of having his own farm from the time he was a kid, and years later that dream has grown into a family business where people can come to play and learn a little bit about where their food comes from. 🌾 Amongst all the fun I noticed how much thought has gone into making everyone feel welcome.

Only 25 minutes east of Saskatoon, it makes for a pretty easy little escape from the city.

We’ve all heard it a million times: “Saskatchewan is flat.” Apparently nobody told Buffalo Pound. 🚵‍♀️

This summer, I got to test out the new trails at Buffalo Pound Provincial Park on my adaptive mountain bike. With berms, rollers, and plenty of flow, I can build my skills for the mountains without ever leaving the prairies.

It’s pretty cool to be shredding down the same hill where I learned to ski, just on a different piece of equipment.

Throwing it back to September of 2024 when @sophlmorg and I spent a week hiking, biking, and paddling with @rockymtnadaptive and pals. The Canadian Rockies are BEAUTIFUL and thanks to RMA, more and more people can enjoy them to the fullest. Miss you Sophie, let’s adventure together soon!
