MAX HYMAN Lead Guide

Discovering a new life for himself after a wilderness recovery program at the age of 21, Max has devoted the last 13 years to immersing himself in nature and learning what it truly means to be free. He finds purpose and joy in backpacking and backcountry camping, meditation in movement, navigation, bushcraft, horticulture/permaculture and travel. As an active participant in the recovery community, a CCAR certified recovery coach, a former sober house manager, an AR Guide and person in long-term recovery, Max recognizes the importance of multiple pathways to healing. He experiences profound integration in the outdoors and it is his dream come true to share his experience and hope with others seeking the same type of connection. Over the past three years, he has taken up rock-climbing, whitewater rafting, kayaking, river surfing and more. He plans to continue his outdoor education in any way he can; one adventure at a time.
