About Carey

 I am a hiker, but not really an experienced backpacker, who grew up car camping with my family.  I developed a love of the outdoors, especially the Rocky Mountains, where I grew up, and I live in the red rock high desert of Utah.  I am passionate about the environment, books (my Kindle rules!), music, animals, singing, photography, and hiking, obviously.  I am planning my 2012 thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail and I will be raising money for a non-profit called Best Friends Animal Sanctuary.

    I am raising money in Rhubarb's name for the animals living at Best Friends Animal Sanctuary in Utah. Best Friends took Rhubarb in from his rescuers and kept him alive and happy, gave him his cart and found him his forever home.

    Here are some pictures of my tent. The DVD is to show scale/size but it's also a great movie which I love.
