This is all the ski gear I’ll be using this winter!

Here are some of my absolute favorite and best winter hikes in Colorado! Winter anywhere can be a hard season to get through due to shorter days of light, but I always find winters better when I spend more time outside.

In August 2021, I thru-hiked the 210-mile John Muir Trail. It was easily the best (and hardest) thing I’ve ever done in my life and I encourage anyone who wants to do it one day to just go for it. The first step to making your John Muir Trail thru-hike dream a reality is to get a permit. In this post, I’ll walk you through all the permit application options and logistics so you know what you need to do in order to score a John Muir Trail Permit for the 2025 hiking season.

In this post, learn about all the photography gear I use as a travel and landscape photographer. I get asked a lot about what my camera setup is, so I’ve compiled all that information in this post to share with you along with some other recommendations!
