Halfway between Las Vegas and Joshua Tree National Park is the Mojave National Preserve. A surreal landscape of jagged mountains and endless desert valleys. There are some giant sand dunes in there, we camped a couple nights and checked them out.
A few days in a otherworldly part of southern California last November. Thank you Valerie for arranging the accommodations and to your sister for allowing us to stay at her Airbnb spot.
A few days later we headed out to climb a formation in the Fisher Towers called Ancient Art. It is probably one of the most popular desert towers in the world.
Well hello there. It has been a while. Hope everything is good in your part of the world.
Playing a bit of catchup here.
This is from an evening hike in late October of last year. Canyonlands might just be my favorite National Park.
This all took place in the middle of October. 5 days or so at Indian Creek with great people.
We drove from the La Sals down to Castle Valley to climb my second desert tower ever. Much warmer!
Two lovely days with cold nights reminding you of the oncoming winter.
A short visit to one of my favorite places with some of my favorite people. Made even shorter by a weird and really painful throat issue.
Cole had the genius idea to ride the Route of the Hiawatha when his Mom was visiting. I got to tag along. The weather was perfect.
My first time walking through the woods carrying a gun looking for something to shoot.
A few plane rides and the kindness of a stranger providing a ride from the airport led to Bozeman, MT.
A few last summer days in Asheville. Feels like home these days as much as any place does.
