Hey, it’s a #WaterfallWednesday photo from #opcOnThisDay in 2017, a thin strand viewed from the Million Dollar Highway in Colorado. #twofer
Ten years ago today, I was hiking in the Phoenix Mountains Preserve when a haboob blew thru.
Today’s #TentViewTuesday comes from Saturday morning at Bonito Campground in the Coconino #NationalForest in #Arizona. #camping
The two most likely vehicle problems are flat tires and dead batteries. Both of these are usually easily fixable.
Have a spare tire, a way to fix a tire, and a portable tire inflator. And carry a battery jumper (and normal jumper cables too) for your battery. At minimum, they’ll save you a ton of frustration when something eventually goes wrong.
Sharing Sequoia
From a post nine years ago today:
Later today, I’m making a return visit to Sequoia & Kings Canyon National Parks. Sequoia is a special park for me—it was my first visit there back in 1998 that sparked my excitement about visiting the big name western national parks.
I returned the following summer with Kim, eager to show her the amazing place I had experienced. That trip, captured in the photo below, really launched what would become my lifelong national parks quest and my passion for road trips. I’d return again—several times—each visit bringing someone else who really needed to experience it, too. This trip follows that same tradition, as I’m introducing six of my closest backpacking friends to one of the places I treasure the most in this world.

Blue Mesa, Petrified Forest #NationalPark, #opcOnThisDay in 2016.
I met this cool ass dude #opcOnThisDay in 2017 in Utah.
Jumping way back to 2006 for this #MountainMonday shot from Rocky Mountain National Park. ☀︎ #Colorado #NationalParks
Today's #FootPathFriday is from Jupiter Inlet Outstanding Natural Area in Florida, one of the few BLM sites located in the East.
#opcOnThisDay in 2019, I completed my decades-long quest to visit all 400+ national parks in the US with an all day boat tour in Glacier Bay National Park.
Of course, I had to riff a little on my somewhat-infamous park number signs…

Today’s #TentViewTuesday is from a June 2022 weekend #camping trip to Idyllwild #California. It was intended to introduce one of my Phx friends to one of my LA friends since they share so many hobbies and interests, but a new puppy issue prevented one of them from making it. Still, a nice way to escape the summer heat, and it’s the only #statepark campground I’ve stayed at that’s walking distance to a brewery 😂
We spent #opcOnThisDay in 2018 with some friends at the North Rim of the Grand Canyon, then stopped at Lees Ferry, and got #LostNeededDirections in Flagstaff.
This #MountainMonday comes to you from the rim of Aniakchak Crater in Alaska.
Squiggles, squiggles, and more squiggles #opcOnThisDay in 2019. #Alaska
It's pretty hard to lose the trail on the way to Pelican Beach in #PuertoRico. #FootPathFriday
#opcOnThisDay way back in 2003, I took this photo at Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park. At the time, it was one of my most fav photos and it adorned my wallpaper for quite some time. ☀︎ #NationalPark #Washington
I spent #opcOnThisDay in 2019 enjoying some (cooler than June in Phoenix) mountain air up at 9500ft elevation in the Coconino National Forest, apparently lounging for awhile near Arizona Snowbowl. #Arizona #Flagstaff #NationalForest
