Abigail ScottBy Abigail Scott
I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

When Poseidon decides he's had enough of your seafaring antics, let the NRS Orion Dry Jacket safeguard you from his wrath (albeit a gentle wrath at that). The Orion features NRS' 4-layer Eclipse fabric, which is both waterproof and breathable, while the Nanosphere DWR treatment bolsters your defense against sea spray, rain, and other forms of moisture. The articulated storm hood allows you to batten down the hatches when the waves really start to kick up, and the perforated face shield even furthers your protection, without restricting airflow.
