My friend Mike is guide for the Adventure Bound rafting company in Colorado and brought me along on a trip down the Green River through Lodore Canyon in Dinosaur National …
Dinosaur National Monument
I made a quick trip down to take a look at Echo Park in Dinosaur National Monument. Brutal road, but a great, isolated campground at the end of it.
Yellowstone National Park
From Grand Teton I headed north to the very crowded, but beautiful, Yellowstone National Park.
Grand Teton National Park
Some images of the Tetons and my overnight backpacking trip up to Holly Lake.
Great Sand Dunes National Park
The tallest sand dunes in North America.
Comanche National Grasslands
The little known, little visited chunk of land in south eastern Colorado. Highly recommended if you’re in the area. Dirt roads, few signs, bring a map.
New Orleans/Gulf Port
The beginning of a six week road trip around the United States.
Los Angeles '10
I’d never been on the subway system in Los Angeles so we went down to Union Station and then walked around downtown LA.
Death Valley
Neither a valley (it’s technically a basin), nor particularly deadly (only one person died to give it its name), but very beautiful and well worth a trip.
Okefenokee Swamp
A three-day canoe trip through the Okefenokee Swamp in southern Georgia.
California '09
Started in Northern California and then flew down to the LA area for a sailing trip over to Catalina Island.
Las Penitas Beach, Nicaragua
Just south of Leon. Lovely Beaches, but nowhere decent to stay. Do it as a day trip; just grab the bus from the small market on the edge of Leon …
Leon, Nicaragua
Leon is beautiful, a city of poets and painters, philosophers and political revolutionaries. By far my favorite city in Nicaragua.
Corn Islands, Nicaragua (Again)
For our honeymoon we went back to Little Corn Island. Unfortunately it rained most of the time we were there, but we enjoyed ourselves anyway.
Nicaragua - The Corn Islands
The Corn Islands are off the Eastern shore of Nicaragua and while they have very little in common with the mainland, they were definitely my favorite spot on this trip. …
Nicaragua - San Juan Del Sur
From Granada we decided to check out the Pacific side for a few days down in San Juan Del Sur.
Nicaragua - Granada
After one night in Managua we hopped a chicken bus down to the colonial town of Granada on the shores of Lago Nicaragua.
