Man Woman Mountain

“The surest way to mend a broken heart is through a forest wilderness.”
John Muir

On really confusing evenings of self, I like to drink beer and make up quotations that John Muir definitely did not write. I summon him like my own, personal break-up Yoda the moment a man threatens to rip the sticky, sensitive tissue of my heart to shreds. I need this. A stubborn, fantasy-ridden reminder that things can still be beautiful, even when they do not read more

How are your post camping processes?

Post Camping Processes 1

By Lynley Joyce

It’s been a fantastic weekend camping and you’ve made it home after a long car drive. Everyone is off to work or school tomorrow, you’re exhausted and there’s a car full of camping gear, some of it wet and dirty. What do you do?

Post camping processes: Depends on the circumstances

Option 1: Forget about it until at least after work tomorrow, and preferably not even then. Just have a shower and go to bed.

Option 2: Offload the gear, then forget about it until you have time. Maybe just clear out the by-now festering cool box and read more

The Lean-to Virgin, A Comical Journey

lean-to 1

By Janiel Green

My first backpacking trip turned out to be an utter disaster. The trip consisted of a backpacking, snow-shoeing trip up the mountaineering route at Mount Whitney in California.

Inspiration for the (Female) Adventurer’s Soul

Inspiration 1

Where do you find your inspiration?

By Andrea Willingham

I confess: I’m a sucker for a good story with a strong heroine, and we’re not talking Scarlett O’Hara here. We’re talking that rare breed of female lead that somehow seems to elude most mainstream media, disproportionate to the number of male protagonists that dominate our literary landscape and cultural narratives.

Although this topic has become of great interest to me in the last few years, I have tended to shy away from addressing read more
