Ari Antonio

About me

Ari’s first formative outdoor experiences were car camping trips with her family in Northern California, where she was born and raised. While she lost touch with recreation for many years, she rekindled that relationship while hiking and mountaineering in Colorado, which she now calls home. Ari later found rock climbing, has instructed for volunteer-led organizations, and is an instructor/guide with She Sends Collective. While Ari’s daytime job is for the Colorado Department of Agriculture, her weekend life centers around her passion for increasing access to and recreation outdoors through climbing, skiing, and mountaineering. Ari is also fluent in Spanish, and looks forward to guiding you in English or Spanish!
