IGS

Parking lots are intersting too.

Relics

Wore, but not yet wore out

.

Yesterdays actually

All in a day, I seem to go through a lot of hats in a day.

Autumn

Inspired by all the fall haze and muted colours.

Meanwhile back at the ranch

I guess in Wyoming they dont bail their hay,  they make giant cupcakes out of em.

Swung through Jellystone again on my way home, this some algea in a gyser's creek.

Just out of home, we stopped so I can grab this shot of the fresh snow on the hills beside the highway.

It was actually the only shot I took that day.

I have had pure black snowboard gear for a long time, but for this year I decided to switch it up and go bright so I can be found when I need to be.  I ended up getting my new gear the other day, blue and orange, which inspired me when I saw this old truck again behind the Royal.

Just cause it looks sweet

Puddles in the alley behind what is known around here as "the castle"

Aspen

Skipped through Aspen yesterday, and on the way east from town we ended up in an aspen grove that had already lost its leaves.

OOOHH TAHHH - Pronounced UTAH

No Interweb for a few days so now I play catchup.

Foy Lake Oak Tree's all gnarly and rad

For a few days I thought I had lost a lens here.   Nope, found er under the drivers seat of the truck this afternoon,  I was so stoked I did a little jig.

The Needles in Canyonlands National Park.

Dory and I went for a little hike,  turned out we went for a 20some km tour with not too much water(her bottle got a hole) and cold hot dogs.   Good planning on our part. The first half of the hike was awesome,  second was hellish.  Got to see some jeep(a stock Jeep rubicon) do some gangster rock crawling that blew me away.  mad respect for Jeeps now.  

Cisco Utah - No idea what happened here, but this town sure looks like its seen better days.   

Valley of the Gods

Southern Utah, Valley of the Gods, one hell of a rad place. crazy huge Mordor lookin spires. We got some pretty flat light for the evening and then were hoping for a wicked dawn but we fled in the middle of the night when it started raining. Apparently it gets too gnarly for my lil Explorer in there when it rains, so we made dam sure to be out before it all flooded.

 

South Rim

Got to check out a slightly hazy South Rim of the Grand Canyon today with Dory 

Mini Salt Lake

Dryed up salt bed on the side of a California Hwy yesterday. I'm pretty stoked to see how the film turns out from this, I took it on my grandpa's old cam that I need to uhhh - adjust - to get current film to fit, and it leaves a tonn of character in the images.   

Joshua Tree's and Turtles

Had no interweb over the past few so I'm uploading three today.

 Night, dawn and a little critter tryin to make his way across the highway. 

LOST

I have no idea where I was.

 Ok I had a general idea, I was somwhere south of Prescott Arizona and then I got creative with the route. Rad tour though.

 

Sedona Sunrise

This is actually yesterday's image, I'm posting her late.

 Got to go for a hike up to this sweet ledge with my Dad for sunrise. Beauties spot for a beauties sunrise. 

Sedona Sunset

The front lawn of our hotel here in Sedona at sunset 

Snowy peaks

I cant remember what she's called, but its in Arizona near Flagstaff. I expected it to be summer down here. not snowy peaks and frost on the ground. sillyness. 

Navajo

Another tree picture.

 Somewhere in Arizona along hwy 89 in Navajo land. 

The Big Crack

Grand Canyon 

Kodachrome cabin

Wandering around southern Utah today I got to glimpse Zion canyon, Red Canyon and believe it or not I got to go to a spot called Kodachrome Basin.   It wasn't a very photogenic thanks to the 10 feet of visibility from the pea soup of fog,  but it lifted nicely in time for this little capture.  

Kolob

West Zion Canyon

 Looks like Jurassic Park.

 

Some Light Reading

Somewhere in Utah, up some random non 2wd friendly road(my truck is 2wd), gettin into some Kerouac

A quick 5 second time lapse of the sun setting.

not sure why the resolution is horrid - any tips would be appreciated.

Jellystone

I couldn't find Yogi, but I did come across some other good stuff. I'll have to go back to find Yogi. 

On the road

Well not quite on the road, gotta upload this and add some fluids to the old girl then I'll be on the road. Thought this was kinda fitting for a long trip in an old explorer. 

 A little ode to National Lampoons Vacation 

NERD

NERD

I kinda slacked today on this - Tomorrow's will be way better.  Promise
