Newsletter
Jenn’s newsletter, Outdoors with Jenn, is a weekly invitation to step outside—onto quiet trails, explore new places, and offer moments of reflection.
Through her personal stories and outdoor adventures across the Adirondacks, Finger Lakes and beyond, Jenn explores what it means to push gently beyond the comfort zone and find growth along the way.
“As a seasoned skier and adventurer, Jenn Woltjen shares stories of her outdoor exploits while also letting readers know how they can participate in these adventures themselves. Her articles are equally enjoyable as a reader and an outdoor lover.”
