The start of something new

Hello one and all. I have created this blog so that anyone interested can stay up to date on my locations and happenings. I don't know how long I intend on keeping this blog, but for now it is meant to be for my adventures out west.

For anyone just joining me... This is me and my new bamf van/apartment. I am moving to NV (for another stint of work) from MN. This is me on the first day of my trip, leaving home.








My trip took me from Apple Valley, MN to Spearfish, SD. I spent a few days there seeing some old familiar faces, and doing some of the things I love most. Here are a few places I went rock climbing. The first on is in spearfish canyon. The other in Custer state park.














After a few days of playing in the Black Hills, I followed the sunset to Missoula, MT. I am staying with some old family friends, the infamous Stallings. They gave me the one-day tour of the Missoula area, and did a damn good job tiring me out. I spent today hiking in the Bitterroot mountains, and went for one epic mountain bike ride in the evening. There are a number of fires burning in the mountains surrounding Missoula, but despite the flames, the Stallings pulled a beautiful day out of thier hat for me.














So, here I am spending my last evening in Montana. Tommorow I head to Salt Lake City for an evening, followed the next day by heading to Henderson, the town I will be staying at, just south of Vegas. I have plans of spending saturday and sunday climbing in Red Rocks. I will keep updating this as I have opportunities to get to a computer, which may be infrequent. But stay tuned friends... the adventures are only just starting. So I leave you with this.

"What is that feeling when you're driving away from people and they recede on the plain till you see their specks dispersing? — it's the too-huge world vaulting us, and it's good-bye. But we lean forward to the next crazy venture beneath the skies." -JK
