Scott is a deep nature guide and mentor...
Scott Davidson is a deep nature guide who cultivates an ecology of belonging through a unique weaving of wildlife tracking, habitat tending and questing in community. It’s all about deep connection in community. As a lifelong guide, he nurtures the genius in each of us, one relationship and curiosity at a time. Scott deeply listens to the truth of the moments, helping people learn from all of wild life, both surrounding us and within us, and our inherent ability to live fully in balanced connection and service with all of life.
As a gifted council and quest guide, Scott collaborates with and serves many locally and internationally. His first 4-day solo fast was with the School of Lost Borders in Death Valley National Park, and he continues to work, play and train with the School in CA wildlands, including a personal renewal fast each year. Scott mentors boys into young men through wild adventures and skills, councils and quests, with the Stepping Stones Project in the SF Bay Area. With the Wilderness Guides Council, he coordinates annual gatherings nationally and intimately engages with the rites of passage guides community, including South Africa in 2014.
As a wildlife ecologist and tracking guide, he earned his Track & Sign III certificates from CyberTracker Conservation, BS in Plant Ecology from UC Santa Cruz, and his Permaculture Design Certificate through the Regenerative Design Institute where he teaches the Tracking & Nature Connection Series every Spring and Fall season. He is a leader within the Art of Mentoring – Deep Nature Connection community with the 8 Shields Institute. Scott is a co-founder of the Tracking & Nature Connection Series and Catscapes Tracking Series, as well as several nature connection programs for youth and families such as the Marin Organic Farm Field Studies and Glean Team programs, the Marin County Tracking Club and Permaculture Marin, all designed to re-weave people in service back into the fabric of the landscape while celebrating this gift of life in community.
Scott is stoked to live in the wild coastal hills of Marin County, CA, USA. His wise and playful presence and his sound commitment to his work for future generations radiates Aloha into everything he does.
