Biography

Josh claims that the one thing he loves the most beside his wife is nature. He had his first hiking experience in Veadavoo, Wyoming – which turned out to be quite the adventure as he had forgotten to check the weather forecast. The lack of preparation did not scare him as he continues hiking around the U.S, Jamaica and Mexico. To date his best hiking experiences have been Jamaica due to the tropical scenery and Wyoming as it is the highest elevation he has achieved so far.
