@paulrobinson87 and @jwebxl were climbing a roadside boulder in Zimbabwe and one of the locals decided to cheer them on! I’m glad they are as excited about climbing as we are. #bouldering #climbing #zimbabwe #africa #chant #neverstopexploring #stoked

Sunset from my camping spot after driving up Lippincott Pass. You can see The Race Track in the distance! #deathvalley #overland #sunset #desert #neverstopexploring

I used my handy Nomad carabiner on set the other day to keep my phone charged. It plugged right into the battery on my RED camera! What a rad piece of gear to keep in your kit. #hellonomad #setlife #redepic

It’s always a good time soaking in some hot springs in the Eastern Sierras! #sierras #hotsprings #overland #sunrise

I could see flames from my driveway the other night so I drove around to see how close the fire actually was. I ended up staying out for a few hours photographing the fire. Here’s a timelapse I took of Romero Canyon burning. #thomasfire #timelapse #fire #santabarbara #romerocanyon

Spending time in the mountains is one of my favorite things to do! Hope y’all are getting out this weekend. Here’s some inspiration from a shoot I did a while back. #getoutside #camping #hammock #mountains #neverstopexploring #getmarco #nemo #nemotents

We found some petroglyphs in a canyon on a road trip. They were estimated to be between 200-400 years old! #petroglyphs #redcamera #redepicw #timelapse #cavepainting

I have been curious about hyperlapses so I decided to give it a go. I used a monopod to reduce my footprint. These were my first few hyperlapses I have ever done. Kinda cool though! Can’t wait to try this technique out more. #hyperlapse #santabarbara #beach #statestreet

I recently visited Death Valley for the first time. I have to say my mind was blown by the diversity of the desert! This image features Eureka Dunes. These dunes are the tallest dunes in California reaching a height of almost 700 feet. #deathvalley #eurekadunes #overland #neverstopexploring #sunrise #sanddunes

We couldn’t believe how crystal clear the ice was on the black sands of the Icelandic beaches! This was one of the many amazing ice formations we found. #iceland #prana #neverstopexploring #expedition (at Iceland)

A few clips from our overland trip through the Mojave Desert. On our first day we headed to the New York Mountains and set up camp there. It was a challenge driving and flying my drone at the same time but it worked out! #overland #mojavedesert #drone #provenoverland #4runner #toyota4runner

It was fun to hit some jumps at Big Bear this weekend! I’m a bit rusty but had a blast getting back into it. #bigbear #mtb #bikepark #santacruzbikes #camelbak #mountainbike #sendit #killtrail #kaliprotectives #veloprocyclery (at Big Bear Lake, California)
