2/10 to 2/11/2017 – I had a nice little story written up about this excellent trip into the Wolverine Cabin in Ten Lakes… but then it mysteriously disappeared when I published the post… So here is the quick and dirty – Daan spontaneously flew in from Denver to visit Jonny and I (temporarily reuniting a good […]
Read more "A Quick Winter Walk into Ten Lakes"5/2/2016 – I finally got the chance to get out with the local mountain legend, and my awesome boss, Don Scharfe. This fella has a level mountain mastery that the community of the Flathead Valley respects and learns from. His passion and skills are self taught and come simply from years spent in zealous wandering in […]
Read more "Spring in Glacier – 2016"4/1 to 5/9/2016 – When you get a call from your best buddies proposing that they might come stay with you for a month, take them up on it. Then they’ll stay longer. And keep coming back. And that’s the best part. That was the case when Jonny and Leslie came back to town last […]
Read more "Some Family Outings"3/22 to 3/25/2016 – Being that we live so close to the border, Grete and I had a major Canadian itch to scratch this last ski season. We wanted to get our feet wet with Canadian ski traversing and hoped to get to see some gigantic glaciers too! Thankfully, we had friends (Anthony and Becca) […]
Read more "The Yoho Traverse"2/1 to 3/13/16 – Again, I’ve gotten behind on the blog. The reason for this delay is that good friends, plentiful adventures and great weather have forced me outside and away from my computer… schucks! Well, here goes another little posting about a whole bunch of wonderful wanderings out in the woods from mid-season this […]
Read more "Mid-Winter Goodness"2/13 to 2/15/2016 – After a solid month of routine work, skiing, eating and sleeping Grete and I were needing something to change it up. With Valentine’s Day coming up, I booked Yurtski’s Lupine yurt in the southern Swan Range for the weekend. As plans evolved (in the last couple days before the trip) we ended […]
Read more "Will You Be My Valentine at Yurtski?"5/10-11 & 24-25/2015 – Well, I just realized that I lost track of time and photos (as often happens) and hadn’t posted these photos from a couple of wonderful trips up to the Sperry Glacier last spring… I got the awesome opportunity to volunteer up on Sperry Glacier in Glacier National Park for the USGS doing […]
Read more "Sperry Glacier"12/1/2015 to 1/31/2016 – It was a mighty unusual transition back from Costa Rica’s hot, humid, sun-filled tropical climate to NW Montana’s cold, grey, snow-filled winter one… but we were really excited to be home again. We were easily distracted from our climatic concerns by the thing we missed the most while adventuring: our beloved big white […]
Read more "Winter So Far…"3/29/15 – Well, another birthday came around and Grete invited me to join her (and our buddy Justin) on another ski traverse. This isn’t the first time she’s asked me to walk pretty far in ski boots… Our relationship got its first glimmer while wandering for 14 hours during the Elk Mountains Grand Traverse a […]
Read more "Another Traverse"December 2012 to April 2013 – My second winter out in the Wasatch I skied alot. I was fortunate to meet a new (and always available) friend and touring partner – Jesse Dudley – who was just as stoked to get out and after the mountains! The season also offered the most snow of my three […]
