Training on the Klickitat Trail
After nearly killing myself the past few weeks at home getting things in order for my CDT hike, I decided it was time to take an overnight trip to test out my gear kit and knock the rust off my joints. I met up with “Tomato” and “Sweet Potatoe”...A Leap of Faith
I can still remember that cold March morning on Long Island in 1996 as I struggled to lift on my heavy Dana Design pack and load it in my parent’s car for the trip to Penn Station. In a few hours I would be on a train to DC then a few rides with my future hiking...
Eastern Oregon will always have a piece of my heart. What an awesome weekend spent hanging with friends, soaking in hot springs, giving trail magic to two very special ODT thru-hikers and best of all juts unplugging for 4 days. #easternoregon #desert #pnwonderland #roadtrip #getondatrail #memorialdayweekend
Escaped the sudden heat wave and headed to the mountains for a few nights of car camping. Really digging the new awning we installed on the old rig. #giffordpinchot #carcamping #adventuretime #pnwomderland
The catio build continues, yesterday evening we made some serious progress on the project. We can finally start to see light at the end of the tunnel so to speak, and hopefully by the end of the weekend we can check this him project off the list. #catio #homeprojects #keepingbirdssafe
A friendly reminder that power tools are dangerous. Yesterday while running an angle grinder something happened and next thing I knew I was sliced open and bleeding. Thanks to @suzylaruffa for making me go to urgent care where I was treated to 6 stitches. #stitches #powertools #accidentshappen #catiobuild #ouch
Tom to make the anti-bodies. Super thankful to have been able to get the first shot today, let’s kick this thing in the tail! #vaccinated #oregon #itsjustashot
On my way to a celebration hike of the 25th anniversary of thru hiking the AT, but first a few beers @terminalgravitybrewingco to wet the whistle. Thanks to @thetrailshow for the new buff to take on the hike. #getondatrail #thetrailshow #hellscanyon #appalachiantrailclassof1996 #hikertrash #beerthirty
Enjoying a rare snow day in PDX! Got out for a little ski touring around town before everyone was awake. #urbanski #pdx #nopo #winterwonderland #montbell #point6
