Mia MacCollin hails from Bend, Oregon, a perfect place to indulge her passion for the outdoor world. When she isn't hiking in the high lakes or snowshoeing in the snow parks, you might find her road-tripping to the coast to watch whales or teaching her dogs to hunt truffles in the Cascade foothills.
