It’s been a whirlwind of a month, here’s a brief summary of our short time on the island so far.

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…

Icy Ridges and Awesome Views on Mount Cutler
Hopefully, you’ll excuse my long absence from blog-writing.

I’m committing in this New Year to write…
The Mountain of the People of Maine
A lot of the time when I go off onto an adventure, wherever it may be, the toughest part is describing it. I’ve talked about this before in other posts, so I won’t get into all that again. However, I will say that there is absolutely no better example of this than Katahdin.
