Meet our fabulous team!

Nate Grandchamp (Manager) 
Born and raised in Maine, being active in the outdoors has been a lifelong passion for Nate. Growing up there provided ample opportunity to experiment with all forms of outdoor activity, but a love for being in, on, and around the water have kept paddling (any craft will do) and fishing at the top of his ever growing list of hobbies. In recent years, Nate earned a degree in Outdoor Leadership and has since begun a full time career getting people outside. With a background in machine operation, Nate has been integral to improving the trails at Viking.

Rachel Walker (Manager) 
Rachel grew up on a farm in upstate New York and has been XC skiing since she could walk! After earning her BA from Vassar College in Poughkeepsie NY, she began working seasonal jobs throughout the country as a guide and outdoor educator. From guiding horseback riding, to teaching xc skiing, to mushing sled-dogs across glaciers in Alaska, Rachel is passionate about helping everyone play outside! At Viking, Rachel keeps all shop operations running smoothly and teaches both skate and classic lessons.
