Kyrstan Hubbel
Mount Yale Project Manager
Colorado Fourteeners Initiative

Kyrstan is a native of northeastern Kansas, where she received a degree in Wildlife Biology from Baker University.  Soon thereafter, she hit the trails with the Colorado Fourteeners Initiative as an Outdoor Leadership Intern.  In 2008, she found herself returning to help support the restoration efforts on various Fourteeners as the Restoration Technician.  The following summer she took a trip up to the northern Rockies region where she led a trail crew for the Montana Conservation Corps.  Kyrstan had the privilege to work in areas such as Glacier National Park and the Bob Marshall Wilderness Complex, among others.  This summer she can be found on Mount Yale with her co leader Jeff Goldberg and crew from the Rocky Mountain Youth Corps.
