A week later I was on a flight to Alaska On my 30th birthday i slept in and groggily reached for my phone to reflex check the social world inside my facebook app. The first post I saw was from a former shipmate I worked with in Louisiana mentioning crew openings for some fishing boats […]
These saguaros are at least 75 years old! Did you know that saguaro cactus can live to be 150 years old? I can tell that the two saguaros photographed here are at least 75 years old. That’s because the first arm of a saguaro doesn’t grow until 75-100 years old. Their slow growth has led […]
This hike was a constant uphill grade It took a twelve mile out-and-back hike to get this view, but it was well worth it. Jill and I made our way up Mount Cammerer via the Low Gap and Appalachian Trails. This hike was a constant uphill grade from miles 1 to 6. Although unrelenting, it […]
Crispness, quiet, and low lighting add to the joy of the hike Waking up early to be one of the first people on the trail is always exhilarating to me. The crispness of the morning air, the quiet of the sleepy world, and the low lighting of the dawn all add to the joy of […]
Hiking along that ridge, there were drops of 500′ to 2,000′ This photo was taken along the ridge line heading west from the summit of Mount Evans. I ventured out onto this trail after spending time on the peak of Evans. From the peak you can see that there is a narrow ridge that leads […]
On a clear day, you can’t beat the views The past three years I have been working through the peaks in the White Mountains of New Hampshire, not far from where I live. The Franconia Range is still my favorite area of the White Mountains. This photo was taken along the Franconia Ridge Trail, part […]
Garden of the Gods is a must visit If you are ever in the Colorado Springs area, Garden of the Gods is a must visit. This National Landmark is home to gigantic sandstone rock formations. Not far from Garden of the Gods lies Pikes Peak and the Rocky Mountains. I enjoy this photo because of […]
There were 8 or 9 goats running about on the edge of the trail I was on my way up to the summit of Mount Evans in the summer of 2014 when I came across a herd of mountain goats. The weather was absolutely perfect for a day in the mountains, and the goats were […]
The trail had a five foot base of snow As Matt and I emerged through the tree line of the trail up to the summit of Mount Liberty, we found ourselves looking down on the icy forest below. The world around us was blanketed by a thick layer of snow. Before starting our journey, we […]
Not a good place to get lost This is a photo of vast pine forest in the Franconia Range in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. It’s pretty incredible to look out as far as you can see, and only see snow covered pine trees. In a strange way, it is a similar feeling to looking out […]
