About

Long trips, longer plans.

I'm a longtime backpacker drawn to the blank parts of the map. I like unmarked routes and wild camping, packrafting when the water makes more sense than the ground and winter nights out on the frozen sea.

Planning hikes is half of the joy for me, and probably more than half of the time. I also enjoy building my own gear and modding what I already have, when I have the time.

What you'll find here

Trip reports with the routes, markers, conditions and pictures. How each trip was planned, and how well the plan held up. Gear lists for different kinds of hikes.

Nothing here is sponsored. I buy my own gear and I'll say when something wasn't worth it.
