Welcome to Alex on the Map, a site devoted to national park guides and information on hikes, climbs, gear, and more!

Hi! I’m Alex…

I’m here to help you have the outdoors adventure of a lifetime! I’m a serial adventurer, hiker, and national park expert!

After growing up right by Glacier National Park in Montana, my husband and I now spend our summers road tripping and exploring the American West with our goldendoodle, Gravy, in tow.

Whether you’re planning on putting together itineraries for America’s national parks, hitting the hiking trail, attempting a climbing route, or looking for your next piece of gear or campsite, I have the advice you need!

You can connect with me on these platforms too!
