Read MoreBaja's Conception Bay Might Be The Best Place To SUP
After a long day of driving our van south along the Baja Peninsula, Kristin and I stumbled upon a hidden gem: Conception Bay. Tucked among Baja’s rugged eastern coastline, this serene bay is the perfect destination for stand-up paddleboarding (SUP), and it left us questioning why we hadn’t come sooner.
Read MoreWhat's The Difference: Day Hike vs. Backpacking vs. Trekking
Embarking on an outdoor adventure is a wonderful way to disconnect from the bustling city life, reconnect with nature, and challenge yourself physically and mentally.

Read MoreLooking For Adventure In Baja While Road Tripping With Andrew Muse
Last October, I received a phone call from Andrew Muse to be the Director of Photography for the fourth season of Tiny Home Adventures. I’ll be honest, I had never watched an episode of the series, but my interest was peaked by the location, potential adventures, and the client list we would intertwine throughout the series. So, after we chatted on the phone, I watched a few episodes and gave him a call back, “I’m in, it looks like fun.”
Read MoreI Hiked Mount Tallac to Watch the Stars – You Should Too
Living in South Lake Tahoe, Mount Tallac has always been my constant landmark. Its familiar silhouette serves as a compass, grounding me whenever I wander through Tahoe’s endless beauty. Whether I’m kayaking on the lake or hiking a forested trail, Tallac’s jagged profile stands as a reassuring guide. But recently, I felt the urge to shift perspectives. Instead of looking at Mount Tallac, why not look from its summit and discover the view from above?

Read MoreThere Are So Many Types of Climbing, Here They Are So You Don’t Feel Foolish Like Me
When I first started rock climbing, I assumed it was just about scrambling up rocks for fun. It wasn’t until I had been climbing for a while that I realized how many types of climbing exist. Over the past ten years, I’ve tried almost all of them (except ice climbing, which still intimidates me). Each type has unique challenges and joys, and I’ve grown to love them all for different reasons. Let me break them down so you can avoid the confusion I faced as a beginner.
Read MoreGetting to Baja's Todos Santos Is Hard, But Worth It
Visiting Todos Santos, Baja is a journey—both in distance and experience—that rewards the effort with unforgettable charm. My most recent trip began with a flight over the rugged Sierra de la Laguna mountains into the San José del Cabo Airport. As the plane descended, I looked down at the arid landscape colliding with the turquoise oceanfront. The strip of resorts in San José del Cabo was unmistakable, and our smooth landing brought us closer to the adventure.
Read MoreYou Need To Hike Soldier Pass Caves When Visiting Sedona, AZ
Sedona is a city I have returned to several times. I am not sure what exactly draws me back to this town of red dirt, but I find myself here at least once a year. On a recent visit, I hiked the Seven Sacred Pools just after a rain and continued my hike onward to the Soldier Pass Cave. After clinging for dear life on the side of a muddy hill, I finally made it to this cave that everyone rants and raves about on social media and Reddit threads. While I am typically not one to seek out social media spots, Soldier Pass Cave caught my eye. Its stunning formation and the challenge it offers make it a bucket-list hike for anyone visiting Sedona.
Read MoreI Became Addicted to Rock Climbing When I Discovered It
The first time I went rock climbing, it wasn’t love at first sight. My brother and his friend invited me to join them at a slippery limestone quarry. While the day itself was fun—hanging out with my brother and experiencing something new—the climbing itself wasn’t particularly memorable. I remember thinking, “This would be really cool if it weren’t on a broken quarry wall but out in the mountains.”
At that point, I didn’t realize how deeply connected climbing and the mountains truly were. That thought planted a seed that would change my life.
