A new adventure awaits. Become your guide to monthly fun

Jaclyn Cosgrove covers the (amazing!) outdoors for the Los Angeles Times. They began writing for the Times in 2017 and have written about wildfires, culture, protests, crime and county government. In 2022, they managed For Your Mind, a year-long mental health project. Cosgrove is from rural Oklahoma and is a proud Oklahoma State University graduate. When they moved here in 2017, they fell in love with the Southern California landscape. They are always looking for the next adventure and welcome your ideas. If your call goes straight to voicemail, that person is probably in the mountains with their dog, Maggie Mae.
