Thanks For Visiting

4/25/2018 – It’s been quite a while since I updated this site, so I’m sorry to those who follow along. As a consolation, I have been keeping @wanderingbybicycle on Instagram somewhat updated. Anyway, I’ve taken this summer of from traveling and instead, am working in beautiful Haines Alaska guiding kayakers. It’s not a bad compromise. Safe Travels!

Hawks and I had the day off work today, but not a day off the water; we drove up the Haines Highway for a packraft run down the Klehini River. #klehiniriver #hainesalaska #explorealaska #alpackaraft
Yesterday was a day off for a few of us at AMG, so we decided to kayak across the Chilkoot Inlet to the Katzehin River Delta south of Haines. This is where the wild things are. Within a half an hour of arriving we were bluff charged by a moma brown bear and while hiking we saw lots of large animal tracks. We ever saw wolf tracks in the sand! #explorealaska #hainesalaska, #tongassnationalforest #wherethewildthingsare
After a day and a half of rain, the sun is just beginning to poke back out. #chilkootlake #hainesalaska #explorealaska #seakayaking
The warm temps have finally arrived in southeast Alaska and I finally had a day off to enjoy them. Just two weeks ago this lake was totally iced over. #hainesalaska #chilkootlake #alpackaraft #springishere #getoutandplay
If your town is missing a sign, there is a chance it ended up here. #signpostforest #watsonlake #alaskahighway #yukon
I've driven over 2000 miles across Canada in the past week, through some absolutely beautiful and boring scenery, to reach the Alaska Highway. Yesterday's morning drive started with snow, then ice, which turned the highway so slick I felt sick to my stomach with nervousness. With Jerry's banjo picking playing in the background I pressed on, the sky gradually clearing and the road conditions improving, finally stopping for lunch and this view of the Northern Rockies. #muncholake #britishcolumbia #alaskahighway #rockymountains
