#tbt to the Sierra which I have been dreaming and #tbt to the Sierra which I have been dreaming and lusting for every day lately. This was coming over Glen Pass on the #JMT (known as the “sneakiest” pass and living up to its reputation) racing the sun to find camp with Frizzle @jeffbalvarez after a long-ass day. There was the most pristine and perfect campsite on the edge of that tarn that was occupied, and Frizz and I drooled with envy as we rushed by.... I can’t wait for my neck to be better so that I can wander for hundreds of miles again 💛 #sierranevada #johnmuirtrail #kingscanyon
Something I ask every single mule deer puppy I see Something I ask every single mule deer puppy I see: “Can you hear me??” It never gets old, but they also never seem to get the joke. 😍 #babydeer #allears
I’m scared to jinx it, but it looks like Fiona i I’m scared to jinx it, but it looks like Fiona is using the den under the cabin again this year! I was nervous after the fire that the den might have been damaged from all of the water sprayed on the house and property to put out the fire....but she’s been spotted going in and out of it again, so it’s looking promising! After all we and the neighbors have been through in the past year (and Fiona too!) a new gang of tiny kits playing around on the deck is exactly what the doctor ordered! Fingers crossed! #fionathefox
Thawing is the theme lately. I went for an early m Thawing is the theme lately. I went for an early morning ski through the Kawunechee Valley in Rocky Mountain National Park the other morning to take advantage of the icy snow crust  after a freezing night. It’s was my first time seeing damage from the #easttroublesomefire that wasn’t visible from the road (though most of the obvious damage is still buried under snow)...the biggest change is the willows are completely gone and it opens up the landscape dramatically. Though it was neat to enjoy easy travel without them Im worried for the moose, for whom the willows are vital. I also worried about the Colorado River and erosion and how it will affect the clarity of the water and the health of the fish and river otters and other critters that rely on the river. Time will tell. But for now i lived in the moment and loved flying through easy miles through the valley! I also saw a happy river otter and seeing him as a survivor made me so happy!🎿 #kawuneechevalley #rmnp
