I shot this video way back in September, but have been lazy at video editing (it’s really time consuming and I have been too busy a bee). I finally got around to chopping it up last night into this little ditty. Now I’m on a roll and going through tons of old(ish) files, piecing together...

Grandeur Peak was actually Pim and mine’s first peak together, and we have a wonderful view of it from our street that has had me practically dying to get up it again. A few weeks back, we opted for an evening hike to take in the glorious summer sunset on the mountaintop, and it was...
If you think my not posting hiking photos anymore means I haven’t been getting out, you would be mistaken. I am just terribly lazy and don’t bring a camera anymore (unless you count my phone). That has changed a little with this new video camera, but also not really. When I hike, I just want...
I’ve been playing with video for a couple weeks now. Earlier this year, I had to start making slideshows in Final Cut, so of course video editing wouldn’t fall too far behind. It’s definitely been easier on me having a little bit of a working knowledge of Final Cut, even though the new version may...
Long-time readers may remember when I backpacked Paria Canyon three years ago. It was one of the most glorious experiences in my life, and I took some absolutely incredible photos. Well, I finally did it again last month, only this time it wasn’t very glorious (and I didn’t take many photos). Honestly, I quite despise...
That must sound odd coming from a photographer, but when you do it for a living, it’s too easy to let the “play photography” fall to the side. I get sick of carrying my gear around all the time, so when I’m not working, I don’t even bother half the time. Even hiking Signal Peak...
Last weekend, Pim and I hiked our tenth mountain together, and that makes me very happy. Not only is it a record year for me, but I can’t imagine a more awesome hiking partner! But, I digress. Signal Peak (in the Pine Valley Mountains near St. George) had been on my hit list for years,...
I need a machete. Really, it would have come in very handy on my hike the other night. Me, Molly, and Antony journeyed to a waterfall in Angel Canyon, and it was the most bushwhacking I’ve ever done. It was less than pleasant for most of the hike (machete would have fixed this), but the...
Pim and I have been together for over six months now, and we decided to get out and do something special this weekend. No, not going out for a nice dinner… heading out and summiting a bunch of mountains! Pim is your typical Utah hiking nerd in that he wants to summit the highest peak...
