Sleepy red #fox out behind my house this morning… can barely keep those eyes open!

Appreciating those patterns in the river #ice on yesterday’s hike… #photography

Views along the trail… #hikeyourhike #photography

A heavy blast of winter frost from that last storm…☃️ #photography

Along the trail on yesterday’s hike…🏔️ #scape #photography #Wyoming

Just finished up this little cherry and walnut cutting board… A Christmas present for my mom…🙂🎁 #woodworking (she made me that quilt in the background…!).

Passing by the old Hogan School yesterday… #abandoned #photography

This will be remembered as the most pathetic moment in American history. What a needy fool.

It’s a frosty one out there this morning…❄️ #photography

A little dusting of frosty fresh snow out there this morning….☃️ #photography

Got a nice pic of that #fox out in my yard this morning as some fresh snow was softly falling down… Pretty neat 🦊 #photography

Another walnut cutting board I finished up this fall… I sketched out a #raptor design for the maple inlay in this one… #woodworking

Headed back to the trail from the turnaround point for today’s #hike 🏔️ #photography

Along the trail earlier this #autumn 🍂 #hiking #photography

A bunch of wild #turkeys roaming around out in my yard right now… Do they not know it’s #Thanksgiving !?

Good looking #fox out in my yard right now…🦊

Along the trail last week…. after today’s storm, this will all be covered in snow…❄️ #hike #photography

A pic from my last #hike … winter is coming ❄️ #photography

…along the trail today… #hiking #photography

Not much snow yet up the (closed) Beartooth Highway, but the #rocks were definitely coming down yesterday…🏔️ #photography

A little walk up the (closed for the season) Beartooth Hwy this morning…🏔️ #photography

A #frozen lake sunrise on my last hike … #blackandwhite #photography

My second #astrophotography target of the season… The Pac-Man #nebula. About 16 hours of total exposure time over 3 nights from my driveway. #astronomy

One of the views along the trail this week… Up at about 9,500’ … A few hours away from all the madness of this world. #hike #photography

The #aurora over my neighbor’s place last night ✨

Just finished making a cherry table top for this little elk antler table my dad gave me years ago. The little “rivets” I put in around the edge are actually the heads of these old nails I found at the remains of a cabin up in the mountains… They would date back from the 1800s sometime…

A rare selfie on yesterday’s hike… I don’t know when my beard got that gray, but at least it was keeping my cheeks warm 😉

Just back from today’s #hike into this chilly little lake… Sure pretty and peaceful up there though…plenty of solitude 🏔️ #scape #photography

Wandering down a local #trail this morning… the weather has been pretty hard to beat so far this #autumn 🍂

USA Photo of the year

This morning’s walk in the woods 🍂 #autumn #photography

If sandwich shops don’t start offering a sandwich named “the acquittal” then what are we even doing

Hiking by an old #mine entrance yesterday… It’s locked/gated off inside so you couldn’t go very far even if you wanted to…. #abandoned #photography

Finished up another little cutting board the other day… A kind of ornery-looking little maple #owl inlay into some cherry and walnut 🦉 #woodworking

Taking in the view of Pilot and Index on one of last month’s hikes …🏔️ #scape #photography

Life imitating art.

The terrain of Mammoth Hot Springs… #landscape #photography

A drive over to Mammoth Hot Springs this fall… #scape #photography

Morning light along the trail yesterday…🌲 #hike #photography

Spent a few nights during the last new moon photographing the Crescent #nebula from my driveway… It sort of looks like a #brain floating around in that sea of hydrogen gas! #Halloween #astronomy #astrophotography

A little walk in the woods today… Not many leaves left on those #aspen trees, but I still think they’re pretty 🍂

Continuing my quest to turn my house into a #naturalhistory museum… Replica of a 12,000 year old #bisonantiquus skull found on Orcas Island. Imagine running into one of these beasts in Yellowstone.

…a walk on the wild side this morning… #wilderness #photography

Had a bunch of scrap lumber laying around, so I made this to hang out at the end of my driveway… if our country can’t rediscover the art of dialogue, critical thought and compromise, our continued descent into darkness will be inevitable. #usflag #dividedwefall

Browsing through some pics from my last drive through Yellowstone this fall… #geyser #scape #photography

Getting ready for another #astrophotography session tonight… Who needs sleep when the skies are this big, clear, and moonless? 👽

A photo of the #heart #nebula I made from my driveway over these last couple new moon nights… About a dozen hours of total exposure time ✨ #astrophotography #astronomy

Echos of the past along the trail today…🌲 #abandoned #photography

Took the day off from hiking, so got the Himalayan out for a little run on a #backroad… Snow and ice in the shady spots, won’t be too many more riding days left in this country 🏔️ #motosky #motorcycle #photography
