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!

Mountain beauty forms a large part of the human soul.


"I love the glorious host of mountain forms, whose beauty forms so great a part of a terrestrial human soul."

The Contemplative John Muir
