Welcome to my web page. The pages here change often so you should check back in now and then. I realize that this title page doesn't leap out and grab you, but underneath this un-assuming exterior is a site that I think has a lot to offer. I hope you enjoy it.

I know that it has been a long time since I put a trip report or much of anything obvious on the site, but as some of you may have figured out I have not been idle. Visit my my new blog, A Wandering Knight, to see some videos of things I've done as well as learn about other interesting travel related stuff.
Also pay attention to the top of the page for latest videos. Right now I'm sharing a video on trail building. If you have a fast enough connection I encourage you to watch the video in full screen mode so you can see it in high definition (720p). However, if that results in a jerky video enjoy the smaller version instead.
