The Traveler stands on the north side of the park, far from the crowds and hubbub of the southern half of the Park. It has no attention-grabbing features like storm gods or “Knife Edge” sections or flatlanders asking where the gift shop is, but I’m here to spread the good word that it deserves your attention. I know because, of course, I climbed it.

The Things I Carry Up A Mountain
I’ll tell you a hiking story, but not one like the others.
Sophie recaps the 5th Annual Katahdin Family Hike
The youngest Neville to ever climb Katahdin, my 10-year old sister Sophia recaps our most recent jaunt up the big hill.
A Night on The Bold Coast of Maine
We drove about as far east as you can go for a night of camping on the ocean in one of Maine’s best hidden gems.
The First Month On The Island
It’s been a whirlwind of a month, here’s a brief summary of our short time on the island so far.
Summer ’16 Video
Summer is over. That mostly sucks. What doesn’t suck is that it’s time to show off my Summer ’16 video edit! A collection of video clips and photos from the last few months, thrown over some funky lyrics for your enjoyment! Like I said last year. It was the best summer ever….until next summer.
Acadia, Stars, and Crushing Mountains with my Mom and Sister
My mom has never climbed a mountain (to my knowledge) in her whole life. I guess that’s kind of what happens when you’re a military wife raising three kids and uprooting every three years to who knows where. So when I got a text from her a few weeks ago telling me she had her…
Four Days on the Appalachian Trail: Gulf Hagas to Abol Bridge
I’ve come up with some pretty crazy ideas in my head for different adventures. Most never come to fruition, some end up drastically altered for safety, money, or time constraints, and some take a lot of time to come true so we’ll see how they turn out. My latest might’ve been one of the most…
Acadia National Park
Do you know how many National Parks there are within 500 miles of Maine? One. The answer is one. We went there last weekend, so you don’t have to.
Peaks Island
One of those things that are right in our backyard that we just haven’t gotten around to doing, Peaks Island is one of the many things on our adventure list. We finally got around to it a few weeks ago.
Retroactive Katahdin Post and A Free Lesson on Pamola!
First off, let me say, that if you’re physically able and you haven’t yet climbed up Mount Katahdin, then it’s fair to say you don’t know nothin’ about anything. Mount Katahdin is everything there is to know about Maine, mountain climbing, yourself, everything. If I had one climb to convince someone to get into hiking…
Screw Auger Falls, Mother Walker Falls, Moose Cave, Coos Canyon, and Rumford Falls oh my!
This won’t be in the “Trip Report” format that I’ve been using since all of these five spots are roadside stops that require little to no actual walking to enjoy them. Of course, in some places, it’s more fun to get down into the canyon and explore. But if that doesn’t appeal to you, or…
