The Colorado desert is a close second to the Mojave to lose your mind in.

Beyond spoiled this spring

Just me and bees

🌾⛰️

When I turned 30 I thought the demon whispering in my ear to goto grad school would disappear but now I got another one whispering in my other ear to hike all of the PCT

I love this picture of the desert so much

To much to see, not enough time

Early blooms means early rare plant hunting Phacelia nashiana CA Rare Plant Rank 1B.2 Muilla coronata CA Rare Plant Rank 4.2 Erythranthe rhodopetra Ca Rare Plant Rank 1B.1

Been wanting to get up here for years, and god it does not disappoint.

You’re gonna have to drag me out of the Mojave tbh

Forever speechless here

Flower pilled

Rare flowers, cool geology, and blooms everywhere

Have you said hello to the wildflowers near you today?

LOVE my little goth desert carrots so much

To add to the sand discourse, I’d like to say a hearty Fuck You to this asshole who illegally drove FIVE MILES ACROSS the EUREKA DUNES in Death Valley wilderness. I hope they’re identified and brought to justice soon. www.sfgate.com/national-par...

Got clocked as a desert biologist by some climbers and immediately had to start IDing some plants they saw in the Kingston Range 🥰

If I know you use this I will literally never cite your work again, because there is literally no way to trust it or you

It was 10 out wtf

Mono Lake my salty beloved

the AltGov accounts are all bad. Yeah some like the NPS one are 100% conspiracy grift frauds, but even the "real" ones are just "Guy who used to work for FDA" and are, by their very nature fraudulent branding. Stop listening to these guys

these are the 7 house democrats who voted to give ICE another $10 billion on thursday btw

The National Park Service had roughly 18,000 permanent employees in January 2025. One out of every four is not there today. Let that sink in.

2016 / 2026

If you’re trying to stay off your phone more I highly recommend switching your phones color mode to black and white. It’s kinda crazy how much less I wanna touch this thing now.

Just some photos from the last few days, bit of a timeline cleanse.

I miss seeing flowers in SoCal :(

What's your secret to being online all the time without contracting computer madness? For me it's being pure of heart

I highly recommend this series! I would watch this all the time in college when the world felt overwhelming.

This is actually a pro-ICE message that if taken seriously will lead to the agency being expanded even more than Obama, Biden, and Trump have already expanded it. Pseudo-opposition at best.

it's great to know if a federal agent shoots you in the face the entire government will publicly slander you as a domestic terrorist before ambulances even arrive

I fear Reno is growing on me

Wasn’t expecting to run into a sequoia today on this side of the Sierra

A new path gets laid, nothing stays the same.

Another 11 miles on the PCT please

Already smelling honey in the air in the Southern Sierra 😵‍💫

Finding that sweet spot of roaming around the Eastern Sierra/Death Valley/White Mtns these last few days has been heaven.

A very normal day

This is where I post from

I’m running out of captions for how much I am loving it out here tbh

Views from Bishop

I love watching the mountains get snowed in

Had to visit Eastern Sierra once before they got snowed in

The Coachella valley is honestly one of the most magical places I’ve worked in, sad I couldn’t stay longer, but I don’t like flash floods

Gooped, gabbed, enamored

Enamored with everything I can see

A lil rain makes the desert roar

I know I’m in Southern California because no one has public use bathrooms 🥰
