From www.visitutah.comA Guided Adventure in Utah’s National Parks
The almost universal benefits of spending time outdoors is a big part of why Megan Kennedy founded Good Trip Adventures back in 2020, just months after the world shut down due to the pandemic. Before then she’d guided in the United Kingdom and in New York State and didn’t particularly like what she saw. “People are trained by all levels of the outdoor industry that the outdoors is for a very specific kind of person,” she said. And so she and some of her colleagues hatched an idea for a “better guiding company, with a more horizontal hierarchy, where those who have been traditionally excluded from the outdoors would feel welcome and could experience the learning and making greater connections with self, others and a place that is unique to spending time in nature.” This inclusivity-based philosophy seems to be resonating. Good Trip now guides in 30 national parks nationwide, including all five of Utah’s national parks. The company is women and queer-owned and more than 75 percent of the staff are queer, women or BIPOC. “Creating a safe space where people can learn and ask questions informs everything that we do,” Kennedy said.
