Our Story
Welcome to My Adventure
I am Cherrie (yes, like the fruit) a born and raised Northern BC girl. I grew up enjoying the outdoors, horseback riding, camping, fishing, dirt biking and hiking, I moved to Alberta for university, but returned home to where my heart lays. I am a mom and a wife, and I work as an Emergency nurse full-time. I started Pretty Wild in hopes to find like-minded ladies who want to explore outdoors. To challenge them with new adventures. Also, to have a little fun! Let's get out there!
Welcome to My Adventure
I'm Ryien (Ryan), I was born in a little town called Kitimat, B.C., but have grown up across beautiful British Columbia. I made my way to Prince George in early 2019, but have settled in the beautiful community of Quesnel. The Cariboo amazes me more and more each day, with every adventure I go on, and every person I meet. The mountains called me from a young age, and I enjoy endless outdoor activities. I am a hair stylist by day, and full time mom to a beautiful little girl, Millie. I joined Pretty Wild in hopes of new friendships, and some crazy adventures!
Adventure with us, you won't regret it
Since starting this journey, we have climbed mountains and kayaked down rivers. We have ridden horseback in open fields and through the bush. We have rafted down class IV rapids and survived! All of these adventures have been in the Great White North. Northern BC has so much to offer for the outdoor enthusiast. We are not extremist, but we are taking awesome ladies on adventures and introducing them to potentially life changing experiences. The views, the challenges, the amazing local businesses. Our love for the outdoors is based on a passion for living life to its fullest.
