Hike for Life?
After a brief time alone in the desert to reflect, I only had two unanswered questions. Just because it was possible to hike for the rest of my life, was that what I wanted to do with the time remaining? And, what does carrying a sage bundle say about a person? #gettinglost #AZT #sobo
Pine, Arizona
After helping to prepare the homestead for winter, it was time to say goodbye to family and head back into the mountains. Southbound with no plans. #familytime #goodtimes #wandering #AZT
Tramily on the AZT
Meeting @soulslosher again, a friend hiking the Arizona Trail that I hiked with in 2011, felt like stepping back in time, while also realizing how far we’ve come.

Bottom of the Grand Canyon

Stealth Camping Tusayan, AZ
This is the entrance to the Grand Canyon? It sure is, but without a permit I camped nearby and took way too many pictures of my tent. Not in a hurry to go anywhere, except the food in town is all super expensive. Supposedly it’s cheaper inside the park. Maybe tomorrow the Grand Canyon. #grandcanyon […]
Chillin at the Grand Canyon
Just chilling today, tomorrow I’ll hike #AZT
AZT to Tusayan
Pushed the last 26 miles into Tusayan to have McDonald’s earlier than planned. Only the jokes on me, the McDonald’s has been torn down. Had to settle for Wendy’s, and had to knock on the door to be let in since they close at 6pm on Sundays. But I got my burger. All is well […]
