My first long trail back in 2014 was the 211 mile John Muir Trail.

I didn't know it at the time but the day I got back from this trip I decided to go on my next adventure on the CDT.

Continental divide trail, 2015

One thousand miles into the trail my body was just getting its rhythm.  I overcame some early injury and I felt stronger than ever.

Pacific crest trail, 2016

I was staying at a trail angels house in Big Bear this morning.  I got up before the sun and hitched to the trailhead.  The sun greeted me with this magnificent glow.
