Outdoor Pursuits

My latest climbing adventures are up on my Climbing Photo Gallery and I have a 10-year log of all my Hikes and Climbs and yes, I know I'm a geek (PDF; last updated 12/26/05).

I spent my childhood catching crawdads in the creek behind the house, climbing trees, and fishing for salmon and steelhead. I spent much of high school hiking and scrambling in the Cascades. My love for the outdoors continued to grow through college. Climbing has become a lifelong, life-giving passion.

Climb for Clean Air: During the Summer of 2003, I raised over $6000 for the American Lung Association of Washington and climbed Mt. Rainier in the Climb For Clean Air. Check out my photos and all those who helped.
