Upcoming Events
Team Member Highlight
Emily Alman, Outdoor Guide

Emily is passionate about wonder, wholeness and authentic connection. Emily loves the invitation that nature offers to believe in (among other things) abundance, reciprocity and the power of diversity. Emily has been known to hug the “best” tree on the trail, come home with a camera roll full of fall foliage, and occasionally take her boots off to hike barefoot in the woods. Emily is one of the lead educators at Little Mountain Forest School and a 200-hour trained yoga teacher. 

Butterfly Outdoors is excited to welcome another wonderful member to our team, and hope you can join Emily on trail for a Mindfulness Hike December 19th!

Photos and profiles of all our new team members will be available on our website soon!
