I'm doing a little planning for an upcoming overnight trip to Aravaipa Canyon Wilderness with @exploringisinmydna, @mcarr093, @mjames126, and @swissmissthefirst. It's one of my favorite easy backpacking trips in one of the state's most scenic little canyons. The best part? An intimate perennial stream that flows yearround in the Sonoran Desert. Can't wait. #ourwild #keepitpublic #wilderness

I bought a new kayak on Saturday afternoon, then made it out to the Salt River for a quick paddle with @exploringisinmydna before sunset. I can’t wait for Salt River kayaking season to finally arrive.

One of the benefits of having a national park units quest is that you're forced to go experience places you may not otherwise have gone. Along the way, you'll find a number of gems that you didn't anticipate enjoying so much—like Delaware Water Gap NRA, shown here.

Wildflowers bloom in the Sonoran Desert nearly year-round, but I was still surprised at how many wildflowers we encountered in Alaska last year.

Wildflowers in Tonto National Forest outside of Phoenix. #nowildflowerswereharmed, as this photo was shot from a roadside pull-out. You can get plenty of great wildflower shots without leaving established trails or trampling the very flowers everyone has come to see.

When Monday attacks.
