Sometimes shots can become pretty cliche - google “photo under pier” and you’ll see - but for some reason, this was another one of my favorites from the trip. We jumped across the border to stay a night in California, and I was quickly drawn to the sound of the surf and the smell of the salt in the air. I grew up around oceans, and now that I spend more time in the mountains, the moments by the water are that much more sacred.

The sheer amount of green in Oregon - at every turn, around every corner you can find yourself immersed in it. Towering pines and redwoods reminding you how small you are, carpets of moss lending mystical vibes to your hikes, lush ferns conjuring those Jurassic Park memories, and blue green waters inviting you for an adventure. Whatever type of green gets you goin, you’ll find it in Oregon 😉

Now that I’m home and settled back from an incredible 12 days in Oregon - get ready for some of the favorite pictures I’ve ever taken. The PNW is a wonderland - and I’m already chompin at the bit for the next trip back #oregon

halfway through the Oregon road trip - this picture sums up the vibes pretty well thus far. Thank you @bobbyk.co for the shot and edit!

getting my last little bit of New York in before I head out to Oregon and the PNW for a bit - which I’m hyped for, as farthest north I’ve been on the west coast is San Francisco! Hopefully these falls are frozen over by the time I’m back 🤞🏼 it’s been an oddly warm winter so far.

I was going to come up with a poignant & metaphorical quote relating this picture to my goals for 2020, with something punny about 2019’s ups and downs, perhaps even even add a motivational hashtag at the end- but that seemed a little cliche for the last day of the year.

Since everyone seemed to love the Four Seasons Collage, here’s another from one of my favorite spots in the Catskills.

In honor of 8 lb 6 oz Newborn Infant Jesus, don’t even know a word yet, just a little infant but still omnipotent (and of course @powerade ‘s release of mystic mountain blueberry, which cools you off on a hot summer day) - here’s a picture from our Christmas Day Hike. Even if you prefer your Jesus in a Tuxedo Shirt, cause it says like “I wanna be formal, but im here to party too” and you picture him with giant eagles’ wings singin’ lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with like an Angel Band - Merry Christmas, and hope you caught the reference #shakenbake

This collage was literally one year in the making. It’s been absolutely incredible witnessing and capturing the seasonal transformations. Which season is your favorite?

In April, I found a cheap flight to Madrid, then found my way to this spot instead. Me gustó.

might have been on the Devils Path, but god dang the view was heavenly

I love driving - I always have. I used to beg my dad to take me golfing - solely to get to drive the kart. I visited car shows, I read all the magazines. I bought my own first car (an 11 year old sedan with a Stickshift) - and have enjoyed every moment on the road since. I’ve driven this road more than 200 times now, but each and every day it offers a little different view. If you’ve got a favorite road you love to drive - drop it below so I can keep adding to my road trip bucket list(s)

My flight was delayed 3 days, so I got to skip the messy and frantic part of the storm and drop right into the aftermath - aka #winterwonderland. It’s good to be back for the next month of snowy hikes and frozen scenery

Huge thank you to @jimmysinsta1 for helping me check off a bucket list item today - flying in a small plane. Pretty wild to see the beaches I grew up on from the air (and not via a drone). Time to start working on my PPL 🤔?

Heading into winter like - yesterday was the first real icy day on the falls. This year, the last of the ice melted away from the winter on May 11. I never really did the math before - but that’s 6 months of ice 🥶 Strap on your microspikes - this should be a wild winter ❄️
