A Trip Report. Or is It?

Trailcraft is currently featuring a day by day report on a trip in Hells Canyon. It features a new daily report and photographs. Sounds cool, yes?

However, if you had visions of someone uploading their digital photos and reports straight from the trail you may be disappointed. Instead, each daily report features photos taken on previous years’ trips into the area, along with commentary written before trip. It is an interesting series, but perhaps not quite what you think you are reading.

Such trips don’t always go as planned. It would be really interesting if they emerge from Hells Canyon with a completely different story to tell.

The Racetrack Playa and the "Moving Rocks"

Whenever I post photographs from Death Valley’s Racetrack Playa, as I have done this past week, I get questions about the “moving rocks.” I just posted a piece on this subject at my photography web site.

Congratulations, Tom

It looks like Tom Mangan (at Two-Heel Drive) is going to get the opportunity to share his hiking and trails knowledge in the print edition of the San Jose Mercury News. Congratulations, Tom! (Follow the link to his site to read more.)
