Last November I spent 23 days rafting down the Colorado River and then stuck around the Grand Canyon to run from the South Rim back down to Phantom Ranch where I'd just been 2 weeks and 138 river miles earlier. Watch the video here: youtu.be/GTY1WLLZwwo

Nearly 3 months after I drove across the border into Canada en route to Alaska I wrapped up my northern travels and returned to the Lower 48. I'm ready to slow down and stay in one place for a bit but first I gotta get half way through the United States, so onward and southward!

This camp above Salmon Glacier was definitely one of my favorite spots of the summer! #LiveFree

When I spent the summer of 2019 in Alaska I didn’t think I’d be back. It’s been another fun trip exploring The Last Frontier but the season’s winding down and I’m looking forward to heading south in search of more adventures and endless summer. #Alaska #LiveFree

In November I joined my friend Fraser's 16 person private group on a 23 day rafting trip down the Colorado River. I just published a film chronicling our odyssey, watch it now on my YouTube channel!

Caribou Crossing in Deadhorse, Alaska.

Deadhorse, Alaska. The top of North America, the end of the road to the Arctic Ocean, and…the start of the Pan-American Highway. ¡Más al sur por favor!

Not quite as warm and sandy as my Baja beach views from a few months ago, but waking up to the Arctic Ocean is an incredible experience!! #Tuktoyaktuk

First camp along the Dempster Highway.

Interested in seeing each campsite that I find with Terk the Truck Camper? Check out @Tarzan.Camps.With.Terk on Instagram. I post pictures of every campsite no matter if it’s a rest area, parking lot, or epic boondocking site like this. #DempsterHighway

Back in 2019 while driving the Klondike Highway to Alaska I passed the Dempster Highway sign and felt a pull. That year I only had time for one Arctic adventure, the Dalton, but I’m back and ready to explore more of the Yukon and Northwest Territories! #DempsterHighway

10 years ago I quit my office job, packed my van, and hit the road to see if I could live a full-time nomadic life, working while traveling. I think it's safe to say that I haven't looked back...

It was my 3rd time driving the Icefields Parkway through Banff and Jasper National Parks, and although it was cloudy and rainy most of the day this incredible route definitely did not disappoint!

With work meetings scheduled for back-to-back days I resupplied groceries and rambled up a gravel road to a remote camp perched high in the Porcupine Hills with a panoramic view of the Canadian Rockies.

After nearly a month of travel for work I had one week to push through my list of projects on the truck and camper before kicking off my summer adventures. It helped to have a flat spot secured in my brother’s yard and although I didn’t get everything done I did accomplish enough to hit the road!

Playa Los Cocos was my home for 18 days. I. Love. Mexico.

Trail running above camp while my neighbors kayak on clear water in the Bay of Concepción. I really really really don’t want to leave this place… #LiveFree #BajaLife

I read 187 books last year and in this list I review some of my favorite titles. I even read a book about hedges in Great Britain so there’s bound to be something in here for just about anyone!

The weekend is comin’ in hot! Time to road-run my way up to Tecolote Beach and meet back up with part of the Baja Crew! #LiveFree

It’s been a productive week camped for free on the coast of Cabo Pulmo. Work, bike, run, snorkel, paddle, whale watch, happy hour tacos and cervezas, repeat. I've had a lot of offices over the years, but this is pretty perfect!
