Exploring our world one hike and one adventure at a time, together!

We're Jeff and Moe, married since 2008 (together since 1997), exploring our world one hike and one adventure at a time, together.
We've logged countless muddy miles, rainy scrambles, and joyful summits - most signficantly in our home base of the Catskills, but we've chased peaks from the White Mountains to Oklahoma's Wichita range and everywhere in between. Moe thru hiked the Appalachian Trail in 2016, plus the Long Path, Northville-Placid, and Cohos Trail. Jeff's a bit further behind on thru hikes with just his Northville-Placid thru-hike, but has hiked all the Catskill 3500s, and many of the Adirondack and White Mountains peaks, along with some epic hikes throughout the country.
These days, we're both NYSDEC-licensed hiking and camping guides (Jeff #9992, Moe #7788)—sharing our real trail stories through YouTube videos, detailed blog guides right here, and guided trips via our business, Hike On Guides. Whether it's bushwhacking trailless peaks, winter snowshoe loops, or multi-day backpacking beasts like Devil's Path, we love nothing more than helping folks like you get out there safely, confidently, and with a big smile.
At the heart of it all? Pride Outside—positive LGBTQ+ visibility in the outdoors. We're husbands on trail, celebrating queer joy amid the mud, sweat, and views, and shining a light on other trail-loving queer folks too. No gatekeeping, just genuine campfire chats, pro tips, and that shared thrill of the next summit.
