I discover an abandoned quarry in the desert, and attempt to determine what they were mining there. #life #outdoors #travel
We found a rocky hill in the desert with multiple caves big enough to sleep in. #life #survival #outdoors
Watching a desert sunrise is one of my favorite activities, especially in the Winter when it brings an immediate blast of warmth on a cold morning. #life #nature #outdoors
I've been optimizing the food I carry while living out of my backpack for years in order to maximize nutrition, satisfaction and ease preparation while minimizing bulk and weight. #survival #camping #food
We found one of the best camp spots I have ever seen on the Salt River below Lake Roosevelt in Arizona. #life #travel #outdoors
A late rain, high humidity and breath condensation soaked much of my outdoor sleeping gear overnight, and began to freeze over with me inside. #survival #outdoors #life
We decided to leave the frozen forests of the Mogollon Rim in northern Arizona to explore the significantly warmer East Verde River a short drive away. #life #travel #camping
We left warm Tucson to explore the frigid north of Arizona. It's my third Winter living completely outside, and this feels more like the New Mexican weather I'm used to. #life #outdoors #camping
There's a vegan buffet at a Hare Krishna temple in Tuscon. How much delicious food can I stuff in my face? #health #vegan #food
Thanksgiving in the Wilderness
I walk through a large empty desert in the middle of an urban area discussing stealth camping, private fencing and trespassing signs. #survival #camping #hiking
I tried sleeping on a camping cot the last two nights to see how I like it. It's quite comfortable, though you'll probably still need insulation below you if it's cold. #survival #camping #outdoors
Chad and I climb desert mountains to the top of Wasson Peak near Tucson, AZ. We encounter abandoned mines, old rock buildings and tons of Saguaro Cacti. #life #outdoors #travel
Chad's property is full of sun-loving desert plants, including several Saguaro Cacti, and we add a few more drought tolerant plants to the mix. #gardening #nature #outdoors
Chad picked me up from freezing New Mexico and we drove 8 hours to his home in gloriously warm Arizona. It's so nice here in the Winter... but the Summers are pretty extreme. #life #outdoors #travel
