Route: North Face Team: Christy, Ted, Dirk Bockelmann [Christy here} While there has been a lot of great skiing this spring, nothing would mean more to me than getting North Maroon Peak. For a while now Dirk and I have both pondered whether we were ready for the North Face or not. Ted has skied it a couple of times… Turns out we were ready! We got started on the trail at 4:15 after...

Super-psyched to finally ride the classic White Ri Super-psyched to finally ride the classic White Rim in a day. 🚴🙏🌵After a half dozen multi-day trips on this iconic loop in @canyonlandsnps it was fun to load up the bikes with everything we would need to cover 100-ish miles through the beautiful Utah desert in a single push. Six liters of water, food for twelve hours, enough repair and emergency kits items to fix most problems, and the three of us were off. 🚴 it was so much fun I can see why so bikers make this an annual outing. I’m already thinking about tweaks for next year! Thx to @ajdocken and @jpettlinger for being a part of it. 🍻🍻🍻#whiterim #islandinthesky #utah #desert #nationalpark #mountainbiking #longday #alwaysgo

Last harvest before the snow! 🥕 Sad to have to Last harvest before the snow! 🥕 Sad to have to buy vegetables again. But I guess a longer growing season would mean less skiing…so that doesn’t work. #winteriscoming #slowfood #sustainableag #gooddirt #aspencommunitygarden

We did it! Finished the @wildwomenultra @forranger We did it! Finished the @wildwomenultra @forrangers run hand in hand - with @kipchogeeliud no less! It’s hard to put the experience into worlds but the opportunity to run through five wildlife conservancies in Kenya with people who are devoting their lives to saving and protecting this incredible place was so WILD and inspiring. I’m so proud of our team who made it every step of the way! Thank you to everyone who helped raise funds for @forrangers! And thank to @kipchogeeliud for joining and inspiring us the last day! Unbelievable! @lewa_wildlife @boranaconservancy @oljogi @elkaramalodge @stio #forrangers #wildliferangers #conservationp #nohumanislimited #lettheoutsidein

It’s been an honor to spend time with the amazing organizations and people protecting this place. 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 And now it’s time to run for the rangers!

Today started with diving into waterfalls but ende Today started with diving into waterfalls but ended @lewa_wildlife for a special visit the @forrangers headquarters where we got an amazing briefing on the sophisticated security systems they have set up to not only protect wildlife from poachers but also diffusing human conflict around livestock thief and creating solutions for both communities and wildlife. So cool to see how people are coming together to address wildlife conservation and the pressures of population growth, drought, etc. in Africa. These teams are truly making a difference and your support is going to an amazing cause! Thank you again to everyone who has given! @forrangers @boranaconservancy @lewa_wildlife @conserveglobal #forrangers #wildliferangers #wildlifeconservation #protectwildlife #supportrangers
