By Abigail Scott
I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Why We Love the Therm-a-Rest Parsec Sleeping Bag
When embarking on a challenging hike to the summit of Lone Peak for a weekend of climbing, the Therm-a-Rest Parsec 20 Degree Down Sleeping Bag is our go-to choice.

Its large footbox includes an additional layer of down to ensure cozy toes during chilly nights spent under the starry sky, enabling you to wake up well-rested and comfortably warm.
