Adventures - Here are a few of the trips I have taken since my '99 Thru-Hike along the PCT.

Teton Crest Trail '06:

A short weekend hike through Grand Teton National Park. Variable weather, variable wildlife, and accusations of being a dayhiker.

Grand Teton

Timberline Trail '06:

A casual ramble along the flanks Mt Hood, as well as a few memory filled miles along the PCT. Good landscape, good fun, and in good company.

Aborted Great Basin Traverse '06: The Great Basin Traverse (GBT) is ~1,000 miles in length as it rambles south from Idaho, through Nevada, to the southern end of the White Mountains in California. This traverse is a route of my own creation.
The Hayduke Trail '05: The Hayduke Trail (HDT) is ~800 miles in length and stretches circuitously westward across the Colorado Plateau from Arches National Park to Zion National Park.
The Arizona Trail '04 : a 36 day southbound thru-hike along the AZT. A few blazes, a few rainy days, and most importantly....few people.
Gannett Peak, WY '04: a quick overnighter to the summit of the highest point in Wyoming. Stretches of hiking along the Continental Divide Trail and in some beautiful alpine country.

Salt Flats '02: Chronicles my June 2002 walk across the Salt Flats of Western Utah. 110 degress, 140 lbs of water. Not ultralight, just ultra-thirsty...supposedly this was the first ever crossing of the Salt Flats in a

N-S direction.

ATO '02: In February Salt Lake City hosted the 2002 Winter Olympics. Despite the appeal of such an event, Brandt and I thought our time would be better spent in Southern Utah for ATO 2002 (Avoiding the Olympics) exploring sinuous slot canyons and hauling obscene amounts of water around in our P-2 Packs for a week.
