Introduction

Love backpacking and camping just wish I had a job where I could be in the outdoors all day. I enjoy the journey on a trip but also enjoy the down time when it is well deserved on a trip. WFA & CPR Certified

What cool backpacking trips have you done recently?

Havasupai, Keet seel, Fossil Creek, west clear creek, Horton Springs, Superstitions, Buckskin Gulch, Grand Canyon Rim to Rim to Rim,GC horseshoe mesa,Grand Staircase Escalante, Zion, Bryce...

What's your very favorite piece of gear?

That would be my backpack now. I love that thing.

Tell us about your backpacking experience?
