This is the annual Chequamegon Fat Tire Festival with 16- and 40-mile mountain bike races. The Wild Hearts Adventures mountain bike team will be racing and you can join us! Early registration is required as we have to make hotel reservations pretty early on as it fills up quick. Join us for this epic event and be part of the team!
Important stuff will show up here when needed and when available! Check back often if you are going on an adventure with us because there could be some really, super-important stuff here. No, really, it could be the kind of stuff that decides whether you have a great trip or not like... oh, a list of things to pack, for example. That could be crucial. Actually, there's no "could" in that... it's definitely crucial.
Andy has been sharing his love of the outdoors with others for many years. He is very experienced in backpacking and canoe camping. His main focus is trips in the BWCA, the Superior Hiking Trail and other Minnesota destinations.
I started Wild Hearts because of a longing to reach out to those who have struggled with substance abuse and other destructive life choices to help them rebuild relationships with their families and with God. My desire to do this through wilderness experiences comes from a life-long love of the outdoors nurtured by my parents’ many family camping and canoeing trips. I now share this passion with my wife of 40 years, Pam and our four children, Diana, Andy, Jake and Nikki. I am also blessed with 10 grandchildren that I can share the beauty of God’s creation with!
I am an experienced outdoorsman and have led numerous trips to the Rocky Mountains, the BWCA, St. Croix River, the Appalachian Trail and many of our state parks and forests. Along with wilderness adventures, I love kayaking, backpacking, hiking, mountain biking, CrossFit workouts, watching movies and playing the occasional video game. I am also a commissioned pastor with The River Fellowship.
