Favorite Photos | 2025 Edition

The last year has been another amazing one. While it felt like I wasn't ever getting out quite enough, it turns out that there two more trips than the previous year, so maybe I'm just spoiled.

Thanks to everyone who has enjoyed the stories and shared a story of their own. I always try to mention it when those stories are shared, because I really appreciate hearing about memories or experiences that others have had at the places I've been able to discover. It somehow - even when it happens after the fact - makes those places even more special to me.

Trips: 19 | Tent nights: 78 | Total photos: 4,208

Each photo links to the story where it was used, and the photos are in chronological order.
