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!

Life is either a great adventure or nothing!



"Life is either a great adventure or nothing."

Helen Keller


 

 I LOVE Marsh-marigolds because they are one of the very first subalpine wildflowers to bloom each June, signaling the fact that the summer adventure season is finally HERE! But there is still a WHOLE LOT of snow to travel through in order to get to the peaks!
