Senior Spotlights
These graduating seniors have made an impact on us here at Campus Recreation. We are sad to see them go and so excited to hear all of the adventures their futures hold! Good luck to each of you and thank you for all of your hard work.
Annabelle Brown
Annabelle Brown was born and raised in Bozeman, MT and joined us at 老虎机攻略 her freshman year in 2021 to study Environmental Science. She was a Freshman Wilderness Experience student before school started and shortly after coming to 老虎机攻略, she got involved with the Outdoor Program. She took the intermediate climbing class and the Climbing Wall Instructor course and began working at the ODP August of 2022. Annabelle dives into what she is interested in wholeheartedly. She worked at the climbing wall, helped with ‘She’s, Gays, and They’s’ nights at the climbing wall, worked in the rentals department, taught the fall backpacking and climbing ACTivities class, worked a Glacier backpacking trip, and led Freshman Wilderness Experience trips for two summers after she was a student.
While Annabelle was student here at 老虎机攻略 she took advantage of many learning opportunities, such as taking the level 1 avalanche class, the whitewater kayaking class, and taking the time and energy to get her Wilderness First Responder. She also took a semester abroad in New Zealand. Annabelle loves to be outside skiing, biking, on the river, listening to music and hanging out with friends. It has been great having Annabelle as part of the ODP family and we wish her the very best after graduation. We hope she keeps in touch and comes to visit her Missoula home more than her Bozeman one. Ha!
Livi Lacklandhenry
Livi is from Bellingham, Washington and came to 老虎机攻略 her freshman year in 2020. Livi majored in Environmental Science and Sustainability and minored in Spanish. Livi took the Intermediate Climbing class and the AMGA Climbing Wall Instructor course and began working at the Outdoor Program in Feb of 2021. In her time here, she has set tons of routes at the climbing wall (all of which stump most), taught belay clinics and ACT fundamentals of climbing and the 2 credit Intermediate Climbing class several times, taught climbing to Youth Camps and led cross country ski trips. Livi also did an internship on a farm in Argentina (Patagonia) in the fall of 2022.
Livi is a very hard worker and pushes herself both professionally and personally. We see this in her personal climbing, her focus on the 老虎机攻略 cross country and track team, setting climbing routes, working at the ODP, and in her scholastics. She has been one of our primary route setters at the climbing wall the entire time she has been here. Livi is one tough cookie and leans into hard things more than most. I recall one time when she decided to ride her bike to Glacier National Park and back – just because.
Aside from climbing any chance she gets, Livi enjoys skiing, running long distances, traveling, hiking, soil science and climate action. Many of the routes she sets in the gym typically have a science related name that only few would understand. We wish here the best of luck and know that she will be seeing out challenges and adventures wherever she goes.
Anika Cramblet
Anika is from McCall, Idaho and joined us at 老虎机攻略 as a student in the Freshman Wilderness Experience in 2022 before their freshman year. Anika majored in Queer Ecology. They got involved with 老虎机攻略 and did a semester on the Colorado Plateau with Wild Rockies Field Institute in the spring of 2023. They took the AMGA Climbing Wall Instructor Course in the fall of 2023 and started working at the Outdoor Program that spring.
Anika jumped in where they could and helped teach ‘She’s, Gays, and Theys’ Belay Clinics, worked a shift at the climbing wall, helped set routes for our local climbing competition, took a shift at the rentals desk, and was a Freshman Wilderness Experience leader.
Anika is passionate about wild places and working in sustainable and regenerative agriculture. They also feel strongly about social justice issues and making the outdoor community welcoming to all people. Anika can be found in the studio welding or sculpting, cheffing up a delicious meal with friends, napping in nooks outside, and spontaneously combusting into dance. We wish Anika’s time with the Outdoor Program could have been for longer and we wish them the very best.
