So, I picked up this 50 year old Dolphin Chief Papoose #Canoe for $100 and started bringing her back to life. I'm planning on using it for my week long trip down the lower #Wisconsin riverway later this year #canoecamping #expedition #paddlesports #outdoors #restoration #boating

The first of our veggies are coming in! Yellow beans, tomatoes and banana peppers.

Laminating maps and getting ready for my next solo adventure. Canoe camping for a week and exploring 92 miles of river #canoecamping #wisconsin #outdoors #paddlesports #adventure #conservation

Protestors fill the streets and march past the Western Mutual building near downtown Milwaukee Wisconsin on No Kings Day

Found some delicious trail snacks while hiking with @noirheartcreations.bsky.social Golden Oyster mushrooms! #hiking #backpacking #forage #mushrooms

Bison often walk through this campground and hiking area in #badlandsnational park. Also, before I get any negative comments, I was zoomed in from a safe distance and there was a deep gorge between myself and the bison. Please do not approach wild animals.

Haven't posted in a while but I just got back from a ten day road trip and I have a ton of photos to share! #travel #nationalparks #handsoff #publicland #wildlife #outdoors #photographer

Somewhat of a darker theme today. Abandoned places fascinate me. I took these photos at the Indiana State Sanitarium. They offer guided and self guided tours of the property. It was eerie walking the halls and seeing personal belongings left as if people just got up and left mid day.

Just thinking about beautiful hiking weather and dry trails. Here are some photos from last summer. #protectourpublicland #camping #hiking #northcountrytrail #trailhiking #backpacking #photography #outdoorphotographer #nature #northwoods #wisconsin #nationalparks #wilderness

Devil's Doorway overlooking the frozen Devil's Lake near Baraboo Wisconsin. A few of the trails were a little sketchy but it was definitely worth the hike. #backpacking #iceagetrail #wisconsin #photooftheday #protectourparks #conservation #statepark #pictureoftheday #landscape #hiking

Melting ice ledges and overcast skies on Lake Michigan yesterday. #nature #outdoors #photography #photographer #pictureoftheday

It got up to 50 degrees today so obviously I had to go for at least a short hike. The trail was a slushy mess but the lake shore was lovely. #lakemichigan #wisconsin #greatlakes #midwest #milwaukee #nature #outdoors #hiking #beachday

I'd been to Devil's lake many time but never in the winter. The snow and Ice were beautiful and I couldn't resist a hike across the frozen lake. #winter #hiking #hiker #outdoors #trekking #wisconsin #snow #ice #photography

Winter #hiking with @noirheartcreations.bsky.social ay Devil's Lake State Park in #wisconsin took the east bluff trail which was only slightly sketchy then walked back across the frozen lake. #outdoors #devilslake #dayhike #scenic #iceagetrail #statepark

Testing out a new trekking pole tent. It weighs just over a pound and a half.

I thought this little guy was dead when I found him. I was ready to put him in a specimen jar! After a few moments in my hand he started lifting his head. He was safely released in the nearby pond. #turtle #snappingturtle #nature #wildlife #wilderness #conservation #outdoorlife
