Chartered Descent

I made one new friend while camping this weekend - this cute ladybug! Everywhere I looked, she would be pleasantly chillin'. #adirondacks #adks #ladybug #camping #tiltshift #iphone6s

Outdoor adornments are always serious business. I'm wondering how many severed heads it will take before the neighbors express concern? #summer #gardening

We parked ourselves by this waterfall for an hour while eating lunch and resting during our 15 mile day. Perfect spot to cool off and grab some more water for the journey. #longtrail #vermont #appalachiantrail #waterfalls #waterfall

Painted Trillium. We always luck out and hike the North East just as this is blossoming in the Spring... #trillium #northeast #vermont #longtrail #appalachiantrail #paintedtrillium

Sunset at Stratton Pond (Vermont), a few moments after we bumped into a mother and some bear cubs. Good times! We shared this shelter with an Appalachian Trail Thru-hiker for the evening and had a few hours of laughs before we parted ways... #sunset #stratton #longtrail #vermont #appalachiantrail #iphone6s
