Two little birds on a fan
Clearly they are not speaking to each other right now
A beautiful trail
The beautiful trail, well maintained and secluded feeling, despite the foot traffic.

Some dogs just have to be in the picture

Rim Country Realities
It'd be nice to imagine that our beautiful natural areas are unspoiled... but the reality is that tourism and industry stains the skies, the road grit is created from the beautiful red rocks we all love, and retirement and golf communities use water at embarrassing rates.
Bullet in Las Cruces
The lovely Organ Mountains dominate the scenary in Las Cruces
Navigating the waterfall
Several hikers navigate around a frozen waterfall
Outdoor Research Alpine Bivvy
Nothing is quite as light or minimal as the Outdoor Research Alpine Bivvy, here with my Black's Creek Remedy 7 Antidote. Just about 1 kg of breathable waterproofing and mosquito netting, yet packs as small as a water bottle.
Gear for bike camping
The gear I packed for the AZ Trail shakedown run, excluding what I was actually wearing or normally travel with
My go bag
My go bag, minimum daily loadout. Teton Sports Oasis 1200, 3L of water, med kit, rain kit, gloves, kobo, food, knife, camera, emergency bivvy, basic toiletries, mobile, journal, lights, fire starters, spare tubes, tools. Very basic minimal gear, tried and true and pared down to the bare bones. All of it together weighs less than the water.
