Avid hiker, camper, and traveler Joanie Sanchez first fell in love with the outdoors when she had the opportunity to work one summer with the Youth Conservation Corps in Yosemite National Park. The following year, she served as a leader of the group, teaching and mentoring as she shared her passion for nature. Since then, her adventures have taken her backpacking across Europe, on a state-to-state biking tour across New England, and hiking in the Caribbean islands. She has traveled extensively throughout Mexico and has written an adventure guidebook to its Gulf Coast. A graduate of Yale University, Sanchez grew up and lives in the Dallas area. She spends her free time showing fellow hikers the beauty that Texas trails have to offer.
