Savage River, #Denali National Park, 7/2026. Although she didn’t peek out of the clouds that day, it was still a gorgeous day for a walk in the park. Every time I go, I’m reminded how gorgeous Alaska is. #mountains #arctic #alaska #nationalparks

Picked up #Zelda #EchoesofWisdom for the #Switch today new for $18. Could not pass up that deal! Loving it already. Everything I need in a #cozy #classicgame.

Savage River, Denali National Park, 7/2026. While not really a “hike”, I still really love this simple loop at the beginning of the park and have always enjoyed its craggy rocks. This day, the #clouds were bold and expressive. #savageriver #alaska #denaliforever #denalinotmckinley

Just beat The World Next Door, a neat cozy dungeon crawler that’s sorta like Puzzle Quest. Played this years ago at #PRGE & immediately bought it but took me years to play it completely. Such is the life of a 40-something gamer who is a professor by day. #gamer #indiegames #switch

Although it might not seem like much, our humble 6x6” strawberry patch has produced over 3 pounds of #homegrown #alaska #strawberries this year, more than ever before. Housed in our son’s retired sandbox, I’m thinking this next year we may have to double our patch in size. #garden #arcticliving

From several weeks back: the family and I had a bountiful #morel #harvest this year of 45 POUNDS. Cannot believe we were able to easily find them for 4 weeks in a row in Interior #alaska.

Recent #vintagebook find at our local Literacy Council. #Alaska travelogue + Kent’s Art is in the same vein as Muir’s “Travels”. Looking forward to reading this. #physicalmedia #art #rockwellkent

Excited to announce that one of my pieces has been selected for #RarefiedLight2026 by juror@nevadawier ! This shot was photographed during one of the coldest days in #Fairbanks this past winter - glad to get a bit of a reward for getting out there and photographing at -40F!#fortybelow #icefog #cold

Large Animal Research Station, Fairbanks, Alaska. In the 30 years of living in Fairbanks, I’ve never done the tour at @uaflars even though I’ve lived, worked, and played at @uafairbanks for nearly that entire time. #uafairbanks #lars #muskox #research #abstract

Macro explorations, Georgeson Botanical Garden, 7/2026. Ttartisan 40mm Macro Lens on Fujifilm xPro-3. This fall, I picked up a budget-minded macro lens for my camera. I’ve never owned one, so I haven’t ever wanted to spend a grand on a first-party lens. #macro #flowers #alaska #ttartisan #fujifilm

Macro explorations, Georgeson Botanical Garden, 7/2026. Ttartisan 40mm Macro Lens. This fall, I picked up a budget-minded, third-party macro lens for my camera. I’ve never owned one, so I haven’t ever wanted to spend a grand on a first-party lens. #macro #flowers #alaska #ttartisan #fujifilm

Making a serious run in Shadow of the Colossus on the #ps3 and might actually beat it. Last time I played it was ‘14 & only got 2/16 colossi. Now I’m 6/16. Having lots of #retrogaming run with this one.

Salisbury Beach, Massachusetts. 6/2026. Fujifilm xPro-3. Dipped our toes into the Atlantic in the twilight glow. It’s been over thirty years since I’ve touched the Atlantic. Gorgeous as it may be, this coast is not my own and I feel out of equilibrium. #abstract #beach #splittoned #northshore

Guilty Pleasure: #DawnoftheDead soundtrack from #goblin - picked this LP up At Jackpot Records in PDX. #vinyl #physicalmedia #ownyourmusic

Finally broke out my new macro lens of this recent trip and started trying to figure it out. I’ve wanted one for years but couldn’t justify the $1K price tag for name brand lenses. #macro #ttartisan #flowers #boston #oldnorth

Fenway w/ tilt lens, Fujifilm xPro-3 w/ TT-Artisan Tilt35. Such a great time at Fenway; definitely a bucket-list item with my partner that I didn’t know I needed. #tiltlens #fenway #baseball #ttartisantilt35mmf14 #learning

Boston Alleyway, 6/2026. Fujifilm xPro-3. Didn’t have nearly enough time to slow down and photograph while I was on the East Coast, but I did take a couple shots and played with a few specialty lenses and cameras. #boston #street #alley #chaos #urban

Book haul from Salem, MA & Portland, OR from the last week of travel. Excited to dig into these! #menread #books #reading

Sukakpak, another angle, Dalton Highway. This mountain, ya’ll. Like John Muir, it calls to me in ways I cannot define, like Denali, like the Tetons, Sukakpak fills my soul with love and awe. #sukakpak #daltonhighway #johnmuir #brooksrange #alaska

Failing Guardrail, Atigun Pass, Dalton Highway. I had never ventured so far north even though Atigun’s just a mere 7 hours drive from my driveway, but this stretch of highway certainly seemed thrilling. #mountainpass #atigunpass #arctic #tundra #daltonhighway

Towards Atigun, Dalton Highway, 6/14/26. While I didn’t venture all the way to Deadhorse, I added another 60-75 miles to how far north I’ve traveled on the Dalton and was clearly rewarded for it with gorgeous vistas like this. #arctic #daltonhighway #haulroad #alaska #northtothefuture

Sukakpak in Evening Glow, 85 miles north of the Arctic Circle, 10:30pm. This has been on the bucket list for years. I’ve long admired Sukakpak’s bold, jutting shape amongst the Taiga, and haven’t ever traveled north enough to see it. #alaska #daltonhighway #sukakpak #arctic #taiga
