We’re more than an adventure travel community. Life Happens Outdoors (LHO) is an idea grounded firmly in the belief that every single one of us is born an explorer. That every single one of us, no matter who we are, where we come from, and no matter what our perceived limitations may be, can find a transformative experience in the great outdoors.
