Welcome! I am a contemplative thinker and photographer from Colorado. In this blog, you'll discover photographs that I've taken on my hiking and backpacking trips, mostly in the American West. I've paired these with my favorite inspirational and philosophical quotes - literary passages that emphasize the innate spirituality of the natural world. I hope you enjoy them!

The winds will blow their freshness into you, and the storms their energy.

 

 "Climb the mountains and get their good tidings . . . The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop off like autumn leaves."

The Contemplative John Muir
