It’s Earth Day y’all! I’m proud to partner with my favorite hard kombucha makers, @flyingembersbrew, who are donating 100% of proceeds today to rewilding programs and natural disaster response nationwide through their nonprofit, the Embers Foundation.

We recently took off to a little gem of a hot springs camp in central Oregon. Our favorite highlights were spending time around the campfire, enjoying a few drinks from @flyingembersbrew, and soaking in the springs. #rethinkyourdrink

Exploring lost and untrodden canyons in the desert west. Feeling alone, yet as though there was a history of humans here.

Through the eons of time, vividly in sight through the layers of the earth.

Find a place with some room to breathe.

Out for a spooky little ridge scramble with my pal @chrisbrinleejr

Been on a seriously New Zealand vibes kick lately as this summer they are opening back up! Very ready to be in the land of the kiwi soon!

Climbing in many ways takes as much as you’re willing to give, cuts and scrapes, breaks and bruises. And when you love it, it returns the love in the friendships you make with those you quest into the vertical world with. @chrisburkard on a fun route in Yosemite Valley.

Starting to scheme getting back to Patagonia. Do you ever think about places you’ve been and what they might be like today?

Desert moments, with a car that has become so much more than just a vehicle, more than I ever expected all those years ago.

Lens flares in the southern Utah desert. I really am looking forward to getting back to this location for another night of camping. Sunrise here is 🙌🏼

A mountain kind of life. Moments around Sahale, Washington.

Feeling moody this morning.

These feet were made for walking, and they’ve carried me to many a natural place over the years. Often times painted toes, and often times missing a toenail or two, I’ve been hard on them. Here’s to many more miles, and many more adventures to come.

Not the most flat or level or big enough rock I’ve ever slept on, but hard to argue with the view.

Campfires, log cabins, good friends, and a couple of cold hard kombuchas by @flyingembersbrew was the scene for our recent camping and skiing trip out to Elk Lake.

For the last month I’ve been out with @flyingembersbrew photographing friends making the most of their days and the best of their nights.

I was stoked to be introduced to their organic, plant-based drinks. They even donate a portion of all sales to rewilding programs and natural disaster response. It’s pretty great when your drink tastes and does good. #rethinkyourdrink

Can you spot the tiny humans at the edge of the frozen lake? Some amazing Lenticular clouds overlooking the Sisters and Broken Top here in central Oregon.
