Yes! We're celebrating Pam! It's her birthday and we love her!
If you are a friend of Pam's or family, please join us! You don't need to bring a gift, just yourself. We're going to have some basic food but if you want to contribute an appetizer or other goody, we'd love that!

5:30pm until maybe 9:00pm... you know, depends on when Pam gets tired!
If you know Pam, you know that she is all about friends and family. She also is devoted to helping others, serving tirelessly in the recovery community through her nonprofit organization, Thrive Family Recovery Resources. She is a devoted wife, mother, grandmother, friend and advocate. She also is a guide for Wild Hearts Adventures and helps us is many other ways!
She is the joy of my life and I don't know what I would do without her (this is Paul, by the way). I love adventuring with her and our life journey has been remarkable... an adventure in itself. She has been there the whole way, right by my side, loving me no matter what we're going through or how many dumb things I do. Her faith has been a rock in my life and when my faith has faltered she has been there to pull me up.
She's beautiful, she's fun, she's adventurous, loving, kind, compassionate, full of energy and a non stoppable force! And... by, the grace of God, she's my partner for life, my love, my forever valentine!
Ya, so come on over and say "hi!" And, give Pam a hug.
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.
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 44 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, home projects, watching movies, video games and VR gaming/videos. I am also a commissioned pastor with The River Fellowship and a tech nerd.
Nikki has a genuine interest in and cares deeply for people from all walks of life! She also loves to explore and is an avid outdoorswoman.
Nikki has extensive experience in the mountains of Colorado and the North woods of Minnesota. She also backpacked 500 miles on the Appalachian Trail in 31 days. We’re very fortunate (and so are you) to have Nikki helping guide our women’s and mixed-group trips!
