About your trip

Emily and Amanda of Trailbreaker are thrilled to offer our first WINTER wellness/adventure retreat for veterinary professionals in 2025! We look forward to hosting a new group of inspiring, open hearted people near our beautiful Alaska home. We want to take you cross country skiing, snow-shoeing, and fat-tire biking. We want to feed you wonderful local food prepared by dear friends, chat around the woodstove in a cozy cabin and watch the aurora from a hot tub. We want to practice mindfulness and yoga with you, walk through the magical snowy forest looking for owls and listening to ravens. We want to talk with you about your biggest challenges, hold space for you, and find solutions through building relationships and sharing ideas. We want you to prioritize yourself for a week in Alaska's winter wonderland, and leave here feeling full of motivation and hope.
