Monica Mckibben

Monica grew up in the beautiful state of Utah with a big family. She found the desert landscape to be her passion for finding her strengths and happiness. In 2000, Monica began instructing and guiding in the outdoor industry through her work in wilderness therapy programs supporting teens and families and then on to additional programs and schools that allowed her to expand her experience to supporting groups in a variety of settings. Monica’s strengths are patience, nurturing, providing strong leadership for those feeling outside of their comfort zones. Monica continues to work with private clients and groups as well as supporting local communities with her multiple talents. She enjoys helping others find their passions and find more awareness of themselves and the natural world around them. 

When Monica isn’t off trekking in the woods or paddling a body of water, you can find her enjoying her life in a beautiful yurt with her kids and husband. Monica enjoys skiing, gardening, building, and practicing her massage therapy. 

Monica is certified in CPR and Wilderness First Aid
