Exploring The World, One Mile At A Time

Welcome to Venture Wild!

We’re Katie and Dj a couple of full-time travelers, on the road exploring North America in search of the best hikes, bites, and adventures that are out there- and sharing our discoveries along the way!

Like most good travel stories ours starts with falling in love, takes some silly and entirely unpredictable twists, and ends with a cliffhanger- we’ve been known to make that last part literal. Having been around the world and back, we wanted to share our stories, photos, endless laughter, and moments that make us go, “hmm…” with all of you!

Life is just one big adventure! Venture Wild is a place, for the doers, explorers, dream chasers and anyone who has a travel itch.

Whether you’re planning your next trip, or just dreaming about an adventure, hang with us- inspiration abounds!

Start Exploring With Us!

  • Welcome To Slow Season! 🌲⁣
⁣
While we wait for snow season 😉 This is honestly a time of year we couldn’t possibly love more if we tried. ⁣
⁣
After 14 countries, a thousand late nights and even earlier mornings, sleeping on trains, planes, in cars and the occasional random floor, we’re soaking up slow lazy mornings with cozy cups of coffee, winter walks with no agenda, and the chance to just slow down and appreciate where we’ve been this year and get ready for where life is going to take us next!⁣
⁣
How’s this season treating you?⁣

  • Feeling thankful, today and everyday ✨⁣
⁣
5 years of full time travel has had its ups and downs but we are living a life we dreamed and created that’s all our own, and we couldn’t be more grateful for each and every little moment. ⁣

  • We’ve been in a lot of caves… ice caves, cave caves, salt caves, underwater caves, sea caves… but a lava cave that’s a new one. ⁣
⁣
700,000 years ago Mother Nature decided to put on a show- during a massive volcanic eruption a river of hot molten lava came pouring through an underground fissure and formed the mile long Lava River Cave. ⁣
⁣
It probably wasn’t a whole lot of fun to hang out in the 7 hundred thousand years ago, but today that’s a whole other story 😉 ⁣
⁣
Here’s what you need to know: ⁣
⁣
🛻 It’s about a 15 min. drive down an unpaved Forest Service Road to reach the trailhead- low clearance cars can do it but you’ll need to go slow. ⁣
🗺️ Getting There: take Forest Service Rd 245 for 3 miles, Fire Road 171 for 1.1 miles, and then Fire Road 171B for .4 miles ⁣
❄️ Temps in the cave range between 40-30 F year round, dress in layers. ⁣
💡 The Forest Service reccomends you bring 3 sources of light. Heed the warning, this is a dangerous place in total darkness. ⁣
🥾 The ground is sharp, uneven, and shifty, proper footwear is a must. ⁣
