Camping & Hiking Journal

I made this website to document one of my favorite activities in the world - enjoying nature. I have a deep love for parks in the state where I live and grew up. Here, I'll share my best pictures and log my explorations of this beautiful planet.

The focus of the photos is on my favorite creatures and plants - bugs, snakes, fungus, and flowers. But there's a little bit of everything, as long as it stands still long enough for me to get a shot.

I always follow the basic rules of a good hiker - leave behind nothing but footsteps, take nothing but pictures, never approach wildlife, and stick to the trails!

This site was begun in 2019 and goes through to the present (2024).
