Todd Wells is a proud Pacific Northwest local with an obsession for exploratory whitewater kayaking. When Todd’s not at home paddling the Little White or White Salmon rivers (his backyard favorites), you’re likely to find him pioneering un-run rivers in Alaska, paddling classic Patagonian big water, or off on a wild adventure somewhere in-between.

A National Geographic Young Explorer, Todd has written for Kayak Session, Bomb Flow, Canoe & Kayak, National Geographic Explorer and Duct Tape Diaries. Together with his brother, Brendan Wells, Todd also owns and operates Mountain Mind Collective, a video production company with a focus on adventure films. The brothers’ videos have been featured through Red Bull Media House, National Geographic, and Outside TV. Their recent feature-film and passion project “For the Love” is available on iTunes and Vimeo.
