Backpacking

Backpacking is a hobby that I have picked up since moving to the Pacific Northwest.

Pacific Crest Trail

I walked on the Pacific Crest Trail from April 15 - June 16 in 2013. I had to come home due to a stress fracture in my third metatarsal in my left foot, after walking 800 miles.

I have collected my favorite photos on Flickr

Mount St. Helens

I summitted Mount St. Helens in March of 2013, as a training hike for the PCT.

Mount Hood

I started taking trips around Mount Hood to get my experience in the field. I have done a few different trips, mainly in 2012. A popular one was from Top Spur Trailhead to Cairn Basin.
