Water. Sometimes it’s like an oasis in the desert, sometimes it’s a murky cattle tank. And in between the weather is constantly shifting. I’ll spare you the blister pics. As soon as I left town my shoe inserts decided to breakdown and chew up my heels. Won’t be able to replace them for another two […]

AZT through Coconino National Forest
A little snow, a beautiful birch tree forest and some views. 65 miles to go to one of the most expensive McDonald’s… #wandering #Arizona
AZT Flagstaff Loop
Last day hiking the Flagstaff Loop, spent the night up on a cliff with only just enough room for my tent. Really enjoying the hiking here. I’ve been out for five nights, time to go into town, do some laundry, shower and shave. #Arizona #wandering
AZT Flagstaff
I love hiking through tunnels! And Flagstaff is quickly becoming my favorite hiking destination #tentcamping #Arizona
Walnut Canyon National Monument
Short 15 mile hike for the day so I added some miles around Walnut Canyon. Met a couple of other hikers out doing the same loop around Flagstaff and a couple others taking it slow, otherwise, for camping only seven miles away from town I may as well be in the middle of nowhere… except […]
Fisher Point Cave
Decided not to hike the 30 miles south to Mormon Lake for pizza. They may or may not be open yet for the season. Instead I’m hiking the AZT loop around Flagstaff. First day was only to Lake Mary Valley and up to Fisher Point where I spent so much time looking at the view […]
Flagstaff Tent Camping
Sunrise from inside the tent, just south of Flagstaff #tentcamping #wandering
Toaster House, Pie Town, NM
Stopped at the Toaster House in Pie Town, NM. The place is super nice, quiet and comfortable despite what you may have read on FarOut. Those people causing problems have been removed. The owners are exceedingly generous in their hospitality. Plus you’re walking distance to lots of pie! Just wish my last pair of shoes […]
Losing Hope in Gila National Forest, NM
Caught a five mile hitch in the middle of nowhere to the edge of cell phone service to wish @flightrisk_fries a happy birthday. At the same time I found out a friend who was coming to visit, bringing all of my belongings from storage, got into an accident. Totalling his van and breaking his hip. […]
Tent Camping Gila National Forest
Camping and hiking in some pretty remote places. No cell signal, no people, and you try to grab water when you find it. 170 Mile’s between town’s is more than I’m used to. #CDT #wandering
