The things worth doing.

The things we are most scared of are often the things most worth doing. Evan reminded me of this last week as I was having a meltdown and freaking out about going on a 3-day bikepacking trip with a group of women that I barely knew. I was scared I would somehow be in over …

Snippets of Life

Slipped, slid and crunched our way through Rothrock today. And apparently @ikenhower24 grows trees out of his neck.
Sun’s out, fun’s out! ☀️Truly sunny days are so rare in PA, it makes us appreciate them that much more.
Waking up in the woods. I wrote some words about this past weekend’s bike camping trip in the Pine Creek Gorge. Go check it out! Link in profile.
One of this weekend’s highlights: Coming down Bear Trap Trail with perfect light and perfect snow. So good. Thanks for the 📷 @chainsaw_don.
Had a great time bike camping in the Pine Creek Gorge this weekend. Thanks @chainsaw_don and @mountain_top_provisions for the hospitality! I’m pretty sure it was my best winter camping experience yet.
New @nittanymountainworks tool roll prototype complete with @pennsylvaniagray custom art. Can’t wait to try it out this weekend!
Throwback to pre-thaw as the cold air returns. It’s not time for spring yet, folks. Also, I should XC ski more.
Mandatory office bike ride when it’s 60 degrees in February. @paenvironmentalcouncil And #foreverbuttphotos because I’m rarely fast enough to be far enough ahead to take a picture and I hate stopping the flow of the ride to ask for a photo op.
Southeast/northwest. These two pictures were taken from the same spot at the same time, but in opposite directions. Life analogy: things can appear so different depending on which way you look. Been in a funk the past couple of days so I’m trying my darndest to see things from a positive perspective. Always with some help from my personal cheerleader @pennsylvaniagray.
Splash.
Another solid day of rolling fat. Warm and sunny vibes, screamin’ snowmobile trail downhills, and @ikenhower24’s smoked mac and cheese after were all 👌
It was an enchanted winter wonderland at Black Mo today. We had so much fun last week we had to go back. Getting after that powder before it melts next week... Also, sun!!!!
