Curiosity

The Pacific Northwest is overflowing with opportunities for outdoor recreation. We help people discover these opportunities and connect them with the natural world.

Everyone, regardless of background should have an opportunity to experience the wonders of the natural world. We do not believe in gate keeping and instead promote awareness and respect for the places we recreate in.
Education

The more we understand our surroundings, the more we appreciate them. We provide insight to the natural environments so people can better understand them.
Connection

Spending time in nature brings us closer to ourselves and the people we’re with. We firmly believe a connection with nature is essential for a healthy and happy life.
Koa Mack - Founder
Growing up in Southern California, Koa was first exposed to the beauty of nature through surfing. Koa's love for the outdoors grew as he spent time on the road, traveling to many national parks and wilderness areas on long road trips with his family. Spending time in these natural spaces, Koa grew a deep appreciation of how these places formed, how they function, and how humans can respectfully "play" in them. Today, Koa resides in Seattle, Washington, and spends his free time partaking in a wide variety of outdoor activities in some of the most iconic places across the Pacific Northwest region.
Koa started Koascape with the goal of helping others realize the incredible potential outdoor recreation holds for adventure, exercise, and inspiration. By helping others discover the wonders of the natural world and benefits of outdoor recreation, Koascape hopes to grow a community of environmental stewards that advocate and inspire others to protect these wild spaces.
