Cape Perpetua: Where the Volcanos Met the Ocean

If you’re going to visit just one beach in Oregon, I highly recommend it be Cape Perpetua. Why? Well, it’s already overrun, so one more visitor (or ten more visitors) won’t make much difference. Second, you get bragging rights to…

Bible Verses for Hikers

Hi all! So between travels, internet issues, and the site having some crazy issues last week, I haven’t posted over here in a while! But I’m excited to be back on track for a bit. Here are some of my…

A Little Mountain near Mount Rearguard

Ah…Top of the world views! I recently found a new place that offers them! A place I’ve never been before and—because of the road—I may never visit again. However, the views were spectacular: snowcapped peaks, mountain lakes, snowfields, rocks, and…

The Splendor of Garnet Canyon

Garnet Canyon in Grand Teton National Park is spectacular. I mean, really, really spectacular. Other hikes (such as Table Mountain) are beautiful, but they don’t have the jaw-dropping splendor of Garnet Canyon. As you’re hiking along, you keep looking up,…

The Midnight Trail

It was a lovely day in October. The trees in the back yard were just beginning to turn color, but the air was unseasonably warm. The sun shone (very untypical for western New York State at this time of year).…
