Hiking in places like Mine Mountain just north of Skagway, Alaska, requires well-developed off-trail navigation skills. I posted this on both my non-naturist pages this morning - I always enjoy it when someone asks if I'm naked (so I can reply "if you have to ask, does it matter?) 🙂

I'm most at home in one of the most inhospitable places on earth - what I call "the high granite" - the granite peaks above treeline. This particular spot is right on the Alaska-BC border 80 miles south of my home. A few months ago I did a nude hike to a spot in Greenland that I fell in love with.

It's cold and dreary (-11C) but I have my SAD light and hot tub, and the wood stove is cranked so I can deal with Father Winter's long visit.

One of the realities of climate change in the Yukon is that the clear skies and deep cold of 30 years ago are gone - winters are much warmer and the skies are often cloudy. That makes a full-spectrum SAD light an important self-care tool for some of us to deal with the darkness.

Mine was an exercise in pure logic. I was on an overnight solo hike in a remote area. It was hot. My clothes became soaked in sweat and very uncomfortable. So I removed them all. That was 37 years ago and I seldom hike clothed on warm days anymore. I shot 2 photos of that aspect of that hike.

This time of year, I often think that for someone who loves both warmth and the freedom from wearing clothes, this might not be a great choice as a place to live. Damn the winters are long...

With the temperature right at freezing, today was a good day to get a few minutes of Wim Hof-ish cold therapy. The forecast is for the same tomorrow, then it's going to get cold again. The little dome is one of 7 that protect my best shrubs against moose browsing - they took a beating last year.

Love Black Friday! As long as I keep the wood stove cranked up, that is. It's -15C outside right now, though, so there will be no forest walks.

The snow is getting deeper by the week, but after a rough spell I'm working on getting back into shape. Three weeks ago, the day after my 75th birthday, I had successfully surgery for what turned out to be rectal cancer. With the reality of mortality firmly in mind, I'm moving on with fun plans now.

In case you mean climate change, this is just weather. This was last year. Minus 17C...

Even a nice grounding stroll around my property is good for my head in these stressful times. It's 11C, which is really good for mid-October here - some years we're a foot deep in snow now.

We're having another spell of really nice weather to make getting all the Fall jobs around the property easier, at least for a couple of hours in the afternoon (highs are 8-10C).

It's Fall now. Time to get two more steps done with the firewood - getting it into the basement wood room, and stacking it there. The next step is putting it into the stove to get that lovely wood heat.

Back in the days of film, I was often worried about shooting nudes, as the people running the machines in my local shops could see them. I only ever had two comments, though - a man said it looked like I had a particularly good weekend, and 2 young women asked if they could join me on an outing.

It looks like today will be the final day of naked walks. The high is only going to 15C, but with sun and no wind, my favourite lake has potential. I'll take the motorcycle so it will be a win regardless of what else happens 🙂 (the poor dogs won't be able to join me, though)

Our season will be over in a couple of weeks, but I'm thinking about laying claim to this trail/route as "Clothing Optional" next year. I've done it for day hikes I've organized - put up a notice saying that this trail is being used by the local nudist hiking club (which doesn't actually exist).

Sometimes I use my daypack and its shadow to help make a #NormalizeNudity statement. This photo will be in today's blog post about a hike on Wednesday, a few paragraphs after a comment that "on a day like this, in a place like this, wearing clothes isn't logical."

"Welcome to the U.S.A." says the sign. But at dawn yesterday I was standing in Canada, and although I really miss my regular visits to Skagway, Alaska, for the foreseeable future that's as close to the USA as I'll be getting 😔

Five days ago I posted that I needed to get out into the mountains to celebrate the amazing weather we're having, and Summit Creek would be the first destination.Yesterday, it was, and today it was again ❤️

I was playing on the beach at Summit Lake with my dog Tucker this morning. A couple of tour busses came along and parked so all the folks could get out and take photos. I thought about what to do and decided "fuck it - I was here first" and we continued our play 😀 #NormalizeNudity

When possible, I enjoy posting photos that clearly show me naked, without showing me naked, to help #NormalizeNudity. Yesterday was a major gardening day. I removed clover that has taken over the bee garden from the catnip bed, and several bees, flies, and butterflies appeared within minutes.
