BHA Podcast & Blast, EP. 108: North American Board Member and Heather's Choice Founder Heather Kelly

Alaska-born and raised, top-level collegiate rower, Crossfit addict, big game hunter, river guide, athletic nutrition coach Heather Kelly has spent a lifetime exploring the junction where the food we carry in the backcountry is both deeply satisfying and at its most effective as fuel. In 2014, after preparing her own groceries for a 30-day Grand Canyon adventure, she founded Heather’s Choice – state-of-the-art, freeze-dried backpacking meals and high-performance snacks - in the kitchen of her apartment. Misadventures, wrong turns, failure, constant relentless work and innovation, and a few stints living in her old pickup led to her current place at the top of her game. Which, Heather will tell you, sometimes feels like a wobbly chair perched on a rock above a crashing icy Alaskan surf.
