| Climbing everywhere! |
Over the last four months I have been doing a good amount of exploring, climbing, and spontaneous adventuring. Indian Creek, Salt Lake City, Joshua Tree, Gunnison, Zion... Most of this time I have been soaking up the experiences and absorbing as much as I can without taking too much time to share on the good ol' blog. Instead my time reflecting has been on long drives, between belays, over beers, before bed, and spacing out in my natural peaceful state. I could write an intense blog post about it all, but honestly, I think that would detract from the big picture. I wanted to explore and live life so thats what I've been trying to do. Here are some photos from along the way... Credit to Andy Hansen and Ryan Strong for shooting some of the awesome shots from Zion.
Enjoy

This is such a great post! I love following your work and your adventures. Very inspiring!
Thanks Mckenzi! Glad you enjoyed it. Sometimes the photos are better without my ramblings. Have you had any time to shoot some more climbing images recently?
