Day 2322: It was not the best ski winter in the PNW. While there was plenty of sunshine and precipitation, this year—more than maybe ever—saw rain in the Cascades. I know plenty of people with flexible schedules who managed to hit the jac
Day 2321: This summer may look a little bit different for adventuring in the North Cascades. As the snow begins to melt out from the higher elevation roads, we are getting a better idea of the damage from December’s flooding. Nothing new has be
Day 2320: Elevation isn’t everything when identifying visually stunning summit views and remarkable peaks. There are plenty of summits I saw this past summer up in Alaska that were 3,000’ or even 2,000’ above sea level that were mor

Day 2318: This was my second time reaching this Instafamous lookout point, and I think it grew on me a bit this time. The first time we made it up around noon and a mixture of low clouds/sun obscured the view for much of the time we were up there. I

Day 2314: I find my adventure routine shakes up a little in April and May. From June through October and December through March I spend as much time in the alpine as I can (and conditions allow). This would be true for November as well, but I usually

Day 2309: Last week we saw a particularly unusual set of weather conditions set up in Washington State. Snow fell all the way down to sea level including a measured 3” at SeaTac. This was the 5th greatest March snowfall on record (80ish years o

“I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach, and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived.”
