The majesty of the Tetons. The charm of an old Western town. Jackson Hole doesn't do anything half-assed whether it's views, charm, or recreational verve. Jackson is C7's home base, and the alpine adventures at your fingertips here just cannot be matched. Our C7 Roadshow team decided to pause our peripatetic ways for a little staycation this fall, and we reflected on some of our must-dos—a few "right-now" adventures for the spontaneous set following along and a few for next summer for those long-range planners in the mix.

Some girls get to have all the fun! In early September, some very lucky girls—from 8 years old to 14 years old—were on the water in Sun Valley, Idaho, learning the basics of fly fishing and the importance of being good stewards of river ecosystems. Expert guides were on-hand to share their passion for fishing and their well-earned expertise with these future fly fishers.

Best Buddies Breakaway Camps are epic riding adventures with pro-level coaching. Cache_Seven joined the Aspen Breakaway camp in September and while the riding was, indeed, epic, we were there to support Best Buddies International and the work they do to end the social, physical and economic isolation of the 200 million people worldwide with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). Their programs empower people with IDD to form meaningful friendships with their peers, secure jobs, improve communication and advocacy skills, and live independently, while also offering support for their families. We'll ride to that!

Here's the thing: pursuing a life of outdoor adventure can come with many hurdles. Geography, time, and cost to name a few. Sailing is one of the outdoor pursuits with a long line of hurdles. You have to live near the water and have access to the equipment and instruction. That ain’t cheap. Events like Nantucket Race Week help to support Nantucket Community Sailing, a program that  ensures access to sailing for people of all ages living on island. 

Cache_Seven is proud to be one of the sponsors of Nantucket Race Week because, well, it’s always a good thing to stoke someone’s fire.

Guy Robins was raised with a deep connection to the outdoors, learning fishing and guiding at a young age from his father in Scotland. His adventurous spirit led him to the Himalayas where he co-owned an expedition company and discovered a passion for mentoring young guides. Based in Idaho for the past 20 years and working as a respected fly fishing guide, Guy, never passes up a chance for a day on the river or an adventure in the mountains. The father of two, being active in the outdoors is as necessary as oxygen. And he shares that passion with others, generously.
