Hey there, my name is Olivia Baer! My love for the outdoors started before I can even remember on annual family road trips to Acadia National Park. On those trips I became devoted to losing myself in the outdoors through camping, kayaking, hiking, and biking.

It was within my first semester at the University of Cincinnati that I discovered the Mountaineering Club and a group of great friends to explore with. Since then I have grown a love for backpacking, completed my first 14er, tried rock climbing, and started mountain biking.

I recently just graduated with a degree in Electronic Media and Marketing. Serving as RRT’s Marketing and Advertising Coordinator, I hope to use my creative skills to advocate the importance of seeking a life that is closely connected to nature.

DREAM-PLAN-LIVE

What trips are you currently day dreaming about?

I would love to travel through Asia (Vietnam, Thailand, and South Korea) via bike exploring the natural environment and experiencing the culture.

Is there a trip you are planning to do next?

I am currently starting to plan for the Tour Du Mont expedition through Italy, Switzerland, and France next year.

What was the last trip that you took?

After graduation I spent a month travelling the Black Hills of South Dakota,  sand-sledding in the Great Sand Dunes National Park, completing my first 14er, drinking lots of beer, mountain biking, and exploring Colorado Springs.
