Schweitzer Klassifikation
An avid hiker, camper, and traveler, Joanie Sanchez first fell in love with the outdoors when an opportunity came to work one summer with the Youth Conservation Corps in Yosemite National Park. That led to her serving as a leader of the group the following year, teaching and mentoring as she shared her passion for nature. Since then her adventures have taken her backpacking across Europe, on a state-to-state bike tour across New England, and hiking through the Caribbean islands. She has traveled extensively throughout Mexico and has written an adventure guidebook to Mexico's Gulf Coast. A graduate of Yale University, Sanchez grew up and lives in the Dallas area. She spends her free time showing fellow hikers the beauty that Texas trails have to offer.
