In June 2022 I did a hike on the Peninsula Trail with Christian and the dogs. We enjoyed a night in the wood, a campfire, and gorgeous sunset on Lake Monroe.

Crockett’s Breakfast Camp is a fantastic Gatlinburg breakfast restaurant. It’s the perfect place to get breakfast any Great Smoky Mountains NP backpacking trip.
In May 2022 I joined up with Travis to do my 2md hike in the Dolly Sods Wilderness of West Virginia. Despite some mud it was a great hike.
The Heart and Soul Cafe on the main drag in Pinedale, Wyoming is a mandatory breakfast stop for any backpacking trip in the Wind River Range.
In July 2022 I returned to Glacier National Park for my 4th hike there. This trip we did a 30-mile, 3-day hike in the Many Glacier/Belly River area of Glacier.
I found the Boulder Creek Lodge accidentally, but I’m glad I did. A special place in gorgeous southwest Montana setting, inexpensive, and spotlessly clean cabins. Get there if you can.
‘Spectacular’ doesn’t adequately describe the Many Glacier Hotel and surrounding area. A trip there feels like a journey to the best of the Swiss Alps.
In July 2022 Jeremy invited me on a southwest Colorado overlanding trip. The trip would take us on some of the most epic off-road trails Colorado has to offer.
The second trip of the 2022 season was not a backpacking trip. I teamed up with Jeremy to do an ‘overlanding’ trip in the Land Between the Lakes.
A camera mounting system…? Gear?! Well, as someone who always carries a relatively bulky camera into the backcountry the Peak Design Capture system is critical to my hikes.
