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"6/26 to 8/11/2016 – Well here goes another round of photos that happen to only be a couple of months behind! Since the last update, we’d began to hit our summer stride and hopped out on a couple of classic run/hike/jikes. Grete and I had a deuzy of a day on our first trip into the […]
Read more "The Busy Part of the Summer of 2016…"11/05 to 11/23/2015 – “MUCHOS GRACIAS POR FAVOR…” I repeated over and over to the friendly local farmer who was wading thigh-deep across the Bongo River with our tandem on his back… This only continued my spiral deep into being clearly identified as the dumb gringo tourist on an odd-ball “bicycleta grande” with his beautiful, much more bilingual, wife. […]
Read more "Costa Rica Luna de Miel"9/16 to 9/23/2014 – A spontaneous trip out east was in the cards this fall as I had yet to meet Grete’s extended family and our good friends, the Livingstones, were getting married… So we bought tickets and, fresh off of the Colorado Trail, hopped on an airplane destined for NYC! Many of Grete’s cousins, […]

Read more "Some Early Season Skiing…"10/12/2013 to 10/17/2013 – While having a glorious conversation with Jonny Cromwell in mid-September, discussing adventures during his summer in Glacier Point, Alaska and his plans (or lack there of) for the fall and winter, we came to the conclusion that another bicycle trip was in order. A couple weeks later, Grete and I happened […]
Read more "The Kokopelli Trail"4/21/12 to 4/22/12 – Below lies the story of Jonny Cromwell and I’s first successful ascent of Mt. Ranier. There are no photos or words of the summit or the descent, because the shared spiritual experience was too overwhelming to be portrayed authentically in either medium. Words by Jonny Cromwell and photos by myself. Please […]
Read more "“This is Happening”"10/3/2011 to 10/31/2011 – With the culmination of rafting season came my first empty fall I’ve ever had, and with that, I felt an educational void. To fill this void, I headed to Juneau, AK to take a EMT + W (wilderness) class through the month of October. The month was largely spent inside the […]
Read more "Alaska and a WEMT"5/14/2011 to 5/20/2011 – After a week long roadtrip from Colorado back to Washington (due to Winston’s incredible stubbornness) the Pacific Northwest ski mountaineering adventure began. I met up with Jonny Cromwell, Daan Stevenson, and Andrew Steger shortly after their 3-day attempt at Mt. Rainier. We skied a classic PNW day at Alpental with rain […]
Read more "Washington Righteousness"3/20/2011 to 3/25/2011 – It feels good to cut off from the world for a week.
