Mini bio
How it started.
Zoe and Kelby met in San Luis Obispo in 2019, while she was finishing college and he was working as a firefighter. They launched their social pages in May 2021, sharing the outdoor trips they loved taking together.
Making it their work.
Their first truck camper became a way to travel with low expenses. In a 2026 People interview, Zoe said content work was covering their travel costs by 2022. They had expected to return to other jobs, but the need never came. GoPro featured the pair’s adventure-filming tips in July 2023.
On the trail.
Their films mix trip stories with the details fans need to plan their own adventures. Zoe’s first solo backpacking film follows her toward Eagle Peak in Yosemite; their shared travel films include the Tour du Mont Blanc and the High Sierra Trail. Gear lists, camp meals and storage projects fill the time between trips.
Giving gear another life.
Zoe also co-founded The Gear Project with Kelby and her parents, Leisa and Tim. The family’s used outdoor gear marketplace launched in September 2026. Its founding story connects Zoe’s upbringing around outdoor sports and secondhand gear with a wish to help more people get outside.
