Went to orientation for the Anza Borrego Bighorn Sheep Count for the 1st time in 2016 and took this photo. It was a daunting orientation learning to survive while backpacking in 120 degrees!

Hike on PCT with Bill who was recognized by a Swedish stranger on the trail from a PCT hiker film he saw in Sweden about Bill hiking it in the 70's. Small world! Plus Boy Scouts fed us breakfast😂 #hiking #photography #westcoastkin #scenic #nature #eastcoastkin #views #scape #breathe #PCT #flowers

Volunteered with the Grassy Hollow Loppers to maintain a section of the PCT near Grassy Hollow. It was really fun and there were beautiful flowers🧡
