    About this ebook

    During a blizzard in 2012, Kelly brought Loki—a husky/arctic wolf/malamute mix—home. Kelly had his fair share of experiences with large dogs, but Loki was different. Kelly felt that he had to listen closely to Loki and enter into his world. At that time, Kelly decided that he would do everything possible to not leave him behind at the house. They started backcountry snowboarding together when Loki was four months old, and before his third birthday, he’d seen most of the western United States. Loki the Wolfdog has developed a massive following across social media. With 1.5 million followers on Instagram and 140,000 likes on Facebook, people have grown to love following Kelly and Loki’s adventures. Starting out just for fun, Kelly started an Instagram account for Loki documenting their escapades. The story was later picked up by numerous websites, giving them unexpected exposure. Realizing that they now have a voice in the social media community, they want to give back and inspire others to get out, explore the world, and make memories with their pups. Loki the Wolfdog has a massive following, because people have enjoyed watching Kelly and Loki’s undeniable bond. The story is both philosophical and visual: an invitation to experience life through Kelly and Loki’s eyes.

    INTRODUCTION

    I don’t know if we are driving in the right direction.

    The road doesn’t look familiar, cell service is lost, and we are running out of daylight.

    I look over my shoulder and see Loki sleeping with not a care in the world.

    It slowly washes over me, and I let it; it doesn’t really matter.

    It doesn’t matter where we end up or when we get there. We are together.

    Kelly Lund is a professional dog dad, photographer, and avid outdoorsman. His trusty companion, Loki, is an Instagram sensation but has yet to realize it. Together, Kelly and Loki roam the country and take photos of their journey along the way. While they reside in Denver, Colorado, they are rarely seen there, outside of repacking the truck before charging off on their next adventure.

    Along the way, they have captured memories and stories for a lifetime. They also picked up a couple of tag-a-longs: Ally Coucke and her dog, Bailey. While traveling around North America, the duo has curated photos and writings about travel, the outdoors, and the love of a dog. Kelly and Ally share a love of adventure, wanderlust, their dogs, and each other.

    To explore this Earth is such a marvelous ride, and the journey with a dog next to you can be hard to put into words. Kelly’s mission is to show the world that a dog can go where you go; he doesn’t need to be left behind. You truly can go into the wild, together.

    DISCOVERY

    I want to go to a place I’ve never been before. I want to meet it like a new friend. I want to learn its best attributes, and explore the heights within that. I want to know the dark parts that don’t really matter because the good shines too brightly.

    Let us drive until the road signs disappear and become a distant memory. Come with me, and let us push the limits on this treasure hunt that is life.
