I'm opening this blog in the interests of people who know me, whom I've loved and lived with, known and encountered. It's also for myself, to serve as an organized journal and photo-record of my adventures. I want to record and share my adventurous life below the poverty line. While I'm not a true dirtbag -- I have a house and couple of regular money-making gigs -- I'm certainly climbing, hiking, camping, skiing, snowboarding, and traveling much more than my bottom line might suggest. I keep the overhead low. My time is valuable to me, and I want to spend it my way.
This blog is for my east coast friends and family living lives far away from their dirtbag adventurer. I hope some other people see it too, and it inspires them to leave their misconceptions about how much outdoor recreation costs, get outside, get creative and get gnarly in their own way.
