About Core Moment Outdoors
Hi there! I’m Tristan, an outdoor enthusiast with a passion for exploration and adventure. What is a core moment?
My Outdoor Journey
My love for the outdoors has taken me on an incredible journey across the United States. I’m on a mission to visit all 46 National Parks, with just 9 left to explore. My adventures span a wide range of outdoor activities:
- Mountain biking through challenging trails
- BBQ cooking in the wilderness
- Hiking and camping in remote locations
- Practicing and refining bushcraft skills
- Capturing moments through photography
Current Project: Van Life
This summer, I’m embarking on an exciting project—renovating an older van into a camper. Stay tuned for a comprehensive blog post documenting the entire transformation process.
Travel Experiences
While my heart belongs to the United States’ natural landscapes, I’m gradually expanding my international horizons. So far, I’ve explored:
- Costa Rica
- Canada
- Mexico
- Belize

Commitment to Nature
I’m a dedicated practitioner of Leave No Trace principles, believing in preserving the natural environments we love to explore.
Blog Goals
CoreMoment Outdoors is more than just a blog—it’s a community for adventurers of all levels. My mission is to:
- Share practical outdoor skills and tips
- Provide insights from my personal experiences
- Inspire fellow outdoor enthusiasts
Despite the challenges of recent years (thanks, Covid!), I’m committed to creating more frequent and engaging content. This year, I’m particularly excited to dive into bikepacking and share those adventures with you.
Beyond Outdoors: Woodworking
An amateur woodworker at heart, I’ve created a directory of woodworking clubs—a resource I wish I had when starting out. While full-time custom woodworking remains a dream, it’s a cherished hobby that continues to challenge and inspire me.
