A Few Words: ~Life is good~

ABOUT ME:I'm a Christian guy and the way I figure it, the Lord has made this beautiful playground called the world and it's our jobs to go seek out the best parts of it.

I've been involved in the outdoors since I was a baby taking vacations to the Eastern Sierras. Backpacking and rockclimbing trips mostly. Mountaineering is rather new to me but enjoying it and having large ambitions.

As my experience is getting greater, I've tossed around the hopes of guiding part time someday. I still have a long way to go but I'm young so the more I can get under my belt now, the better. I've found from asking most guides that you have to love working with people (hence the reason I'm a sales rep) =)

I'm always up for teaming up with new people for trips. Send me a PM if you wanna chat

""... Then it seemed to me that the Sierra should be called, not the Nevada or Snowy Range, but the Range of Light. And after ten years of wandering and wondering in the heart of it, rejoicing in its glorious floods of light, the white beams of the morning streaming through the passes, the noonday radiance on the crystal rocks, the flush of the alpenglow, and the irised spray of countless waterfalls, it still seems above all others the Range of Light."" --John Muir
