Overnight in Denali - Wayfaring Style
Overnight in Denali – Wayfaring Style
Denali. The Great One. A mountain that is seemingly larger than life itself. To people the world over this mountain calls. Some are able to make the journey to see her in all her majestic glory, in person. To sit in her presence and take the sights in, studying the ridges, glaciers, snow fields, and to see the wildlife that call the area home.
I’m one of a lucky few who get to see Denali…

A Window Seat at 38,000 Feet
I was introduced to air travel at a preciously young age. I cannot recall my first journey, but do know that it was an international trip, one made on a propellor-driven aircraft. Somewhere along the path from Denver to New York City and on to Amsterdam I picked up the travel bug. Now at nearly 50 years of age, that bug is alive and well in me now. In fact, as I write this I’m aboard a Delta…

The Wayfare Collective
Not so long ago I received an Instagram message from Christian Hollums, founder of a group called the Wayfare Collective. I was not all together familiar with the group, but my son Cayden had mentioned them and noted the talented photographers that were part of it. Christian told me a bit about the group, and asked simply enough if I was interested in joining. Now,…

A December Prairie Sunrise
Sunrise on the Oklahoma Prairie It’s a bit before seven am on a chilly Oklahoma December morning. My son, Cayden, and I have just arrived at an intersection in the outskirts of north west Oklahoma City. Over the past week we’ve been traveling up and down a stretch of road heading to and fro grandpa’s house for groceries, Christmas gifts, and runs to Sonic – a delicacy we don’t have in Alaska…

A Minute in Time
One Minute One minute. A seemingly inconsequential period of time. It is likely safe to say that most of us rarely assign a particular significance to any particular minute on any routine basis. After all, we know that another minute will soon come along; and another, and another. Minutes pass seemingly without effect or consequence before us without fail. Yet, if we look back on our lives we…

Fall in the Chugach
Fall in the Chugach
Fall. Without exception fall is my favourite season. I can’t really distill it down to one single factor. It’s not just the coo, crisp air. Nor is it alone the intoxicating aroma of the leaves falling to the forrest floor. It is not only the explosion of colours, or the increased activity of the animals scurrying around preparing for winter. It is the sum total of this symphony of nature…

Back in the Sun!
Back in the Sun!
The sun returned today after a hiatus of ten days that brought mostly rain to the mountains around Anchorage. While hiking in the mist and the rain is something we Alaskans are accustomed to, we much prefer hiking in the sun – a least this one does. Glacial water flows out of Eagle Lake in this long exposure photo.With the return of the sun I could not resist a quick hike out to Eagle Lake from…

18 Miles, Three Summits, Two Lakes, One Awesome Day
The rain has returned to the South Fork Valley as I’m writing this from the comfort of my chair in my Alaskan home. Rain, it seems to be the theme of the summer of 2017. I suppose we are due for it, as over the past few years we have been blessed with some incredible sunny and warm summers. Still, we have had a few breaks in the rain, and yesterday was one of those days. Encouraged by the…

Hiking in the First Snow
Hiking in the First Snow
One of the things that distinguishes those of us living in Alaska from our friends and family Outside, is our love for long snowy winters filled with deep, sugar fine powder. We love to get out and ski, snowboard, skijor, ride our snow machines, snow shoe, dog mush; the list goes on. For as much time as we spend in the great outdoors during the summer, we take advantage of our winter wonderland…

By the Light of the Full Moon
It’s springtime in Alaska, well close anyway. We are just a few days shy of the Vernal Equinox and one can sense an increase in activity around town. It will not be long before we are wetting our lines in search of salmon, trout, and Arctic Grayling, or hiking high and deep into the mountains and wilderness of this great land. This is a special time of year, and March was quick to become one of…

Planning the Shot, and Enjoying a Great Hike
Planning the Shot, and Enjoying a Great Hike
I often find myself staring at Highland Mountain through the window of our reading nook when I really should be reading. Though I see this mountain every day, I often find myself studying the avalanche chutes and rock outcroppings. This majestic mountain seems to be made of an assemblage of ridges, knolls, cirques, and valleys all coming together to form a presence that stands watch over the…

Oklahoma prairie wildflowers in the breeze.
Enjoying a Golden Hour in the Oklahoma Prairie
I’ve been in Oklahoma City for the past week or so, and two of the things I love about this place are the incredibly beautiful sunrises and sunsets. While Alaska is certainly no stranger to beautiful to the displays of a rising or setting sun, finding a sunset during this time of year is, well, impossible. I was out for a walk the other day and came across a stretch of Oklahoma prairie that was…

Alpine wildflowers stand out like beacons in the mist, marking the trail to the summit of Rendezvous Peak in Alaska’s Chugach Mountains.
Hiking in the Mist - Rendezvous Peak, South Fork Trail
As I sit here writing on this Father’s Day I’m thinking back to my early childhood, and the hikes I took with my father. From a young age I was taught to enjoy the outdoors; to hike, take in the sights, sounds, and smells of the Colorado mountain woods that i called home. From my backdoor I had nearly immediate access to Rocky Mountain National Park, and I quickly found that I preferred certain…
