Haha wow I’m dumb, I feel like I haven’t posted here in decades. 😂
But damn, it’s #RockinTuesday baby!
This is O’Neill Butte, along the South Kaibab Trail at the Grand Canyon. Hell of a hike!

I feel like I’ve missed the last 196 weeks of #RockinTuesday!
Anyway, here’s some giant slab of granite in Yosemite that people way braver than me like to climb…. The mighty El Capitan!

Man, one year ago, where does the time go!
This time last year I was on my epic adventure in Yosemite to summit the legendary Half Dome.

I hated to admit defeat (boo) but I didn't die (yay) so there's that, right?

Any regrets? YES. I didn't take a picture of the pizza that I destroyed that night!

For this week’s #RockinTuesday, we’re staring down the face of the legendary #ElCapitan!

A hike out in the rain to Marymere Falls in Olympic National Park for #WaterfallWedensday. I actually love shooting waterfalls in the rain because:

A) It adds to the ambiance
B) I almost always have the entire place to MYSELF!!!

#SelfPortraitSunday with #EastCoastKin - on my way to the bottom of the #GrandCanyon! This was the first view of the #ColoradoRiver.
