EXPLORING THE GREATER ZION NATIONAL PARK

I’ve spent the last month getting to know a very small part of southern Utah. Even after a month here I continue to find more passes, trails, parks and areas to explore and I realize I’m going to leave with much of southern Utah going undiscovered. That’s okay though as it gives me more reasonsContinue reading “EXPLORING THE GREATER ZION NATIONAL PARK”

ANGEL’S LANDING

Zion National Park is Utah’s first and most visited national park with over 4 million visitors each year. This visitor count also puts Zion third on the list of the most visited national parks in the nation. People come from far and wide to see Zion’s expansive canyon which boast amazing canyoneering opportunities for beginnersContinue reading “ANGEL’S LANDING”

It stinks (literallyContinue reading “WILDFLOWER SEASON!”

SMALL CHANGES

Something new I’ve added to my routine since I’ve been in Alaska is a daily after work hike.

I’d go on walks or runs in my area but it’s not quite the same as venturingContinue reading “SMALL CHANGES”

Only 20% of Alaska is accessible by roads and less than 1% of Alaska is inhabited (source). Alaska takes you from sea level to North America’s tallest peak, Mt. DenaliContinue reading “NEW TERRAIN”

MY STORY

I was recently introduced to the term “Digital Nomad”. A coworker threw it out when I explained what my next adventure was going to be. The exciting thing about this pandemic is, it has encouraged so many people to start exploring the great outdoors and with the opportunities remote work can bring, people can ventureContinue reading “MY STORY”
