Post-adventure, what do you like to do?
Me? Find a good local watering hole.

I had two hours before sunset to wrap up my busy Saturday with some fly fishing. It doesn’t completely clear my mind, but I think it’s what keeps me going

Returned late last night from backpacking in the White Mountains, New Hampshire. Day1: Hiked up to a ridge and camped in a wooded section of the ridge on the “saddle” between two peaks. Day2: Hiked on the exposed section of a connecting ridge. Had a blast! More pics to come! #backpacking #mountains #nature
Something is coming.

Finding Beauty in Familiar Places
After a busy work schedule, I finally embarked on a leisurely local walk to unwind. Without the pressure of breathtaking vistas, I aimed to appreciate the simplicity of my surroundings and capture a bit of the beauty that often goes unnoticed.

@hikingdude Oh my gosh, yes. There were stretches where it was gentle, but for the most part, the extremely narrow trail propelled me high quickly. It was unexpected.
Even more unexpected was that I was able to do it—and then was shocked at just how quickly I’d ascended. At this rate, I could climb in the Alps. It was a new evolution in my hiking, that’s for certain.
My bike&hike yesterday
This is when I talk about mountainbiking: not fierce downhills - but uphills Including an evil ramp of 23% incline (regarding my cycling computer - and my legs) on gravel that I didn't expect.
(especially as I was carrying a backpack including camera and tele-lens)
Still working on the photos from the day before. Today is a rest-day for me.
My legs still feel a bit sore. My back is fine already
#Today 14
Good day!
I hiked on Babcock Mountain above Rock Creek yesterday. Steep? Enough to wake my vertigo, which kept telling me to stare down the slope so I could tip…
I didn’t.
Meanwhile, I’ll pass halfway on the novel scan today—after my walk.
The feet want to move…
Be everwell.

And more! Like, fantastic coffee and pastries.
On the boundary: Canal from 1330s; Hydro Electric Powerhouse from 1921; trail from 2006.
I love adventures full of temporal layers!
Always know the time when out there...!

Chester Creek, PA
Pretty hot today, not sure I feel like fishing. But I didn’t get out enough this week, and the weekend will be packed with my son’s soccer tournament. I think I should try to fish after work… although I still have a lot to get done today
