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!

Intercourse with Nature is important to the preservation of moral and intellectual health.


"How important is a constant intercourse with nature and the contemplation of natural phenomena to the preservation of moral and intellectual health!"

Henry David Thoreau
