I’m having a case of the Baja blues. Probably in need of an ocean pit stop before too long.

Still cannot stop thinking about this magical place, a world that felt outside of this one.

There’s something very calming about the prayer flags in Nepal, a light breeze sending them fluttering in the wind.

Over the edge. The edge is the most terrifying part, for once you’re over the edge it’s nothing but air and freedom.

When we strive to be better than we are everything around us becomes better too. ~ The Alchemist
It’s hard to consider all the things happening around us today and over the past years and look inwards towards change. It’s a fine line to walk, having empathy while asserting your stance, having kindness while not allowing others to dictate your path. Many people have offered their lives to get to where we are today, and while it often feels like we’re going in circles, two steps back for every one forward, we have to keep trying to move forward.

Last week I joined @backcountry for the first of hopefully many ‘Rendezvous’ events in the mountains outside Salt Lake. Camping, hiking, fly fishing, mountain biking, yoga, and community, and can’t forget the delicious drinks by @drinkhighwest .

We had the chance to also test out a ton of new gear from Backcountry and Stoic, including the center pole style tents we stayed in.

A time and place where things were simple, not quite predictable, just consistent.

37 years, it seems like so long but also has flown by. As they go on, I find myself seeking out new things, new phases, but also being more content with settling in to my skin. Friends and family are more important than ever, and I am working on respecting and giving time to them. Life is a constant opportunity to learn and grow, and I’ll take those chances every time I can. Here’s to another year, and with smiles as big as I’ve had recently probably a couple more laugh lines.

On the coast of somewhere beautiful. Where is your favorite camp?
May 12, 2022 at 10:48AM

Sitting here with the Bugaboos on my mind. It’s the potential for more trips like these in the future that gets me out of bed and running up hills to train, using the hang board in Ruby between emails, and organizing life so that it can become a reality.

Just pulled this image of my pal @jamesbarkman out of the archives. Mountaineer, van dweller, and also a rad human who’s currently in Ukraine documenting the war. Glad to know you friend.

Finding perspective, out for a little stroll.

I met @stevendimmitt years ago at Smith Rock in Bend. Since then, he’s left his engineering job and started the @thenuggetclimbing podcast. Passions become pursuits, pursuits become life, moments become years. Proud of you pal, looking forward to climbing together again soon!
