It’s pub day!! My first book, Feral, is finally out via Little A Publishing, and I couldn’t be more proud. Big thanks to Chad Luibl at @JanklowNesbit for believing in this one!

Do I know anyone at SFGATE? They're hiring a national parks editor that I would be perfect for. Would love a more direct line than a loose resume.
Just lost tons of work with no warning from a major gear publication. Editors and brands-- hit me up for your testing and copywriting needs! My winter calendar is a bit more open than usual.🤘

Weather Report from the American Southwest. We must vote for climate-eyed candidates from school boards to county commissioners to local, state, and national Elections from the President of the United States down. Anything less is unacceptable. . There is no more waiting or patience here. As Bruno Latour says, “ We are all living in “Critical Zones.”
In some parts of the world, monsoons can mean endless rain for months. But in the American Southwest, it’s kind of just been hopping all over the place. buff.ly/3XS6Gop
My newest article for @WSJ involved weeks of pulling park statistics to bring you the best (and least crowded) national parks. Huge thanks for the awesome edit on this, @sebmodak !

Stunning hike up Lily Mountain this weekend. Also… I learned that some lakes in Rocky Mountain have leeches. 👀
Spending hours upon hours doing quantitative research as a journalist will really make you hate AI and AI-generated content. The internet feels broken.

“This is the true joy in life, the being used for a purpose recognized by yourself as a mighty one; the being thoroughly worn out before you are thrown on the scrap heap; the being a force of Nature instead of a feverish selfish little clod of ailments and grievances complaining that the world will not devote itself to making you happy.”
— George Bernard Shaw
I cannot believe that it’s been a year since I moved to Boulder! Loving every minute of this new place.
The baby animals are on point here in Boulder, too!
It's springtime in Joshua Tree and you know what that means... BABY ANIMALS! 🥰
As always, please enjoy viewing wildlife from a distance. If an animal reacts to your presence and changes their behavior, then you are too close.

My latest for @Tripadvisor features a little something for everyone and was a blast to research and write.
