🥾 Have you heard….”the trail provides”? It’s true! It’s so very true!

🥾Most people in my life today I met on or near the trail. Not only did I meet most of my closest friends on the trail while hiking, I also met the love 💗 of my life in a trail town. So yes, the trail provides in ways you never dreamed possible.

My love and I have traveled to 38 states together, passed years together camping in a tent 🏕️ , a truck 🛻 , and various trailers. This is what we love - Life Outdoors ☀️🌜🪵🌈 🦌💫 🏔️ 🌲 👣

To the one who has made my dreams come true 👣, I love you 😘❤️‍🔥💋

To those yet to find their true love, my only advice is “spend more time on the trail”!

We all Know Why!

🥾 After a morning of slogging through the snow ❄️ and plunging through a small but brisk creek 🏞️ it was time to dry out my shoes, socks, and dampened pants. 👟 🧦 👖

Since we had a long day of hiking still to come we sat on this sun ☀️ warmed rock 🪨 to enjoy brunch. On this day I enjoyed a homemade veggie polenta egg scramble burrito. Man was it tasty!

A typical strategy for me in the cold is to heat water during morning packup. Place meal into insulated container 🫙 then cover with hot water and start hiking 🏔️ Usually an hour-ish into my morning walk I’ll sit on a rock 🪨 and enjoy my meal 🍲 while basking in the sunshine ☀️

I’m still experimenting with getting the perfect cooking and dehydrating technique for eggs 🍳 For 10 years I’d never been able to dehydrate eggs but I learned a secret 🤫 Mix the egg 🥚 with either potato 🥔 or corn 🌽 scramble and place in the dehydrator.

To my scramble I usually add red bell pepper, brocolli, and spinach. Flavor it with plenty of onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. If your feeling fancy add to this black beans, salsa, and cilantro. If you’re not into cold tortillas (this has taken me a long time) then take tortilla chips and crunch a few into your meal as you eat. This is actually my preferred way to enjoy scrambles, dips, and chilies on the trail. The fresh crunch is amazing!

The storm is rolling in ⛈️ and supposed to drop up to 85” of snow ❄️ in the Sierra Nevada Mountains 🤯 That’s about 7 feet (over 2 meters) in a single storm.

❄️ California depends on winter snowfall in the mountains 🏔️ to supply the state with water through the summer and fall fire season. We want more water 💦 and less fire 🔥

❄️ The mountains are below average for snowpack so this storm is very welcomed.

❄️ We hope we don’t end up with so much snow that we have a repeat of summer of 2023 where in July this is what the mountains looked like. 🤯 It was one of my favorite trips 🎒 to the Sierra 🏔️ but my shoes 🥾 stayed cold 🥶 and wet!

❄️ We need the snow! We need the water! Here’s to some days of hot chocolate ☕️ by the fire while we wait for the summer ☀️ hiking season to start.

What are your summer adventure plans?
