I can't wait to combine my editorial skills with my passion for the mountains! Thanks to everyone who's helped me get here.

Desert Abundance
Over Thanksgiving break, Matt and I visited Zion, Canyonlands, and Arches National Parks in Utah as well as Antelope Canyon on the Navajo Reservation outside Page, Arizona, and Horseshoe Bend (of the Colorado River) there too. I’ve never been any place that dry before, that red. North Carolina clay is notoriously red and dense, but …
Rest & Relaxation + Nature
I love it when people visit us in Laramie, Wyoming. I love to show them our little house (on the prairie? almost), our fun frontier town, the mountains that surround us, the stark and undeniable beauty of the West. Most of my family came to visit me this summer after a long roadtrip or flight/s. …
Banff National Park, Canada
We got to Banff by driving up the west side of Glacier National Park, through the Canadian border, and up through Kootenay National Park in Canada. The highway that runs through Banff National Park is called the Trans-Canada Highway, or AB-1 (the "AB" is short for Alberta, the province). We stopped for dinner at the Juniper …
Being Injured, Being Humbled
I've never understood why people respond to winning awards or recognition with "I am so humbled by this." My instinct says the opposite of that should be true - now that everyone knows you're the most eligible bachelor in Tampa under the age of 30, or whatever, you should feel like hot stuff. And feeling …
California Trip, Part II: Big Sur, Yosemite, and Santa Barbara
This post is a continuation of my last post, California Trip, Part I: San Francisco, about Matt's and my trip to California a couple weeks ago. On Monday morning, we left San Francisco and drove down to Big Sur, of which I've seen beautiful pictures and heard wonderful things. I'd read (thank you, internet) that …

Rainy Weekend at Shelf Road, Colorado
For Memorial Day weekend, Matt and I drove down to Shelf Road, Colorado, which is an area of BLM (Bureau of Land Management) land outside of Cañon City. We met up with some friends we knew from UNC (that's North Carolina, not Northern Colorado), John- who is doing a multi-week road trip out west from Asheville, …
Awesome Outdoorsy Women to Follow on Social Media
I love being outside, but sometimes you have to spend a little time inside, whether it's due to an injury, a job, a commitment, the weather, or- you know- the fact that it's nighttime. Whatever the reason, many of us outdoor fiends end up on social media, and occasionally seeing other people's adventures can inspire us …

Valentine’s Day Excursion
On some winter days in Laramie, you just feel like this: So that's why I take advantage of the warmer winter days we are given. On Valentine's Day this year, Matt had to be in Colorado for a portion of the avalanche safety course he was taking through the University of Wyoming, so I defiantly …
Utah: Land of Skiing, Land of Canyons, Land of People-Actually-Live-Here
I reckon it's about time to write a blog post that's not Christmas-related *sigh*. Things in Laramie, Wyoming have been pleasantly not-too-cold and not-too-windy, about which I could, admittedly, be happier. We always find reasons to complain, don't we? There may be no wind and it may be 30 degrees Fahrenheit, but it just so …
