Zach M. grew up as the eldest of nine in the rolling hills of Minnesota, exploring the Boundary Waters and leading multi-day backpacking trips to the Bighorn and Bridger-Teton National Forests. A transformative hitchhiking trip across Iceland in 2023 deepened his love for awe-inspiring landscapes and human connection. Now in Seward, Zach delights in the unique combination of mountains and ocean, sharing adventures by day and filling his evenings with music, drawing, and writing.
