Sometimes it takes sitting on a rock, in an alpine lake, in the wilderness of the Sierras, to realize how small we really are. This Earth is amazing and every new trail, lake, park, mountain, and city I experience fills me with a sense of awe, wonder, and gratitude for this world that God has given us. And guess what, y’all?! Heaven is going to be a million times more beautiful!! But until then, I’m never going to stop experiencing as much of this planet as I can. Happy Earth Day! 🌎🏔💚 “In every walk with nature, one receives far more than he seeks.” #findyourpark #optoutside #whereswaldo #npsgov #johnmuirtrail

@tobleroneglobal at the top of Muir Pass. I didn’t bring nearly enough chocolate on the trail (rookie mistake), but I did bring a mini Toblerone bar for each mountain pass. It seemed an appropriate reward, and became a really powerful motivator when the going got rough! Definitely a backpacking tradition in the making! #tobleroneatthetop #treatyoself #johnmuirtrail #jmt2017 #whereswaldo #muirhut #toblerone #sonyprousa #sonyrx100v Photo credit: ©️2017 Hilary Bronwyn Gayle, all rights reserved for reserved.

I'm thankful for everyone who did their part on Earth Day yesterday. Let's remember that every day we're lucky enough to be alive on this planet it should be Earth Day. Whether you are inspiring others to love the planet, picking up the trash others leave behind, changing the way you eat, or making a stand politically, every little bit counts.
Day35 August.18.2017 Tyndall Creek-Crabtree-Timberline Lake-Crabtree 11.6miles 9:00-15:30 . We had spent precious time. 今日は早めにキャンプ場へ着き、みんなで芝生でごろごろ。この夜なぜか突然英語が分かるようになり、心の底から笑いまくりました。 英語が分からなくて泣いたときもあったけど、こんな日が来るなんて。 幸せな夜でした。 . #crabtree #kingscanyonnationalpark #sieranevada #california #unitedstates #johnmuirtrail #johnmuirtrail2017 #jmt #ジョンミューアトレイル #backpacker #hiking #camp #trip
Wild and free is the life for me.. It’s crazy how things change the older you get. In High School I played multiple sports, always the life of the party, hung out with the “cool” kids, and was always worried about what other people thought of me. Now many years later, I’m on the complete opposite end of the spectrum. I prefer to be in solitude out there in the judgement free zone of the mountains. I don’t care what anyone thinks about me, or how popular I am. All I care about is living the life I love while I’m on this earth, and being around people who feel the same way. #mountainsoul
Far better is it to dare mighty things, to coin glorious triumphs, even though checked by defeat, than to take rank with those poor spirits who neither enjoy much nor suffer much, because they live in the dim twilight that knows neither victory nor defeat ~T.

Belated Happy Birthday, Mr. John Muir! #april211838 ⛰ What is your favorite John Muir quote? ♥️ “Only by going alone in silence, without baggage, can one truly get into the heart of the wilderness.

“The world is big, and I want to have a good look at it before it gets dark.” ― John Muir We are doing our best to raise this little boy with an adventurous spirit and a love for nature. We hope that he grows up to love and appreciate the beauty of the outdoors, respect it and and be an active force in its future. Our next adventure will be arriving in the mail in the next 10 days and I can’t wait to share one of my favorite activities with him. Something my own father taught me to love and something I 🙏🏻 Calvin enjoys for many years to come. I truly believe a love for earth starts with a love for the outdoors.

Day 3 on the John Muir Trail, viewing the 2017 Solar Eclipse. There was pretty dense cloud cover as well as wildfire smoke, but I was able to take a break from hiking and watch the Solar Eclipse. Packed these sweet UL shades just for the occasion (and yeah, I weighed them 🤣). #safetyfirst #solareclipse #solareclipse2017 #yosemitenationalpark #jmt2017 #johnmuirtrail #whereswaldo waldo #sonyprousa #sonyrx100v #reioptoutside #terrybicycles #waldo

Sunset, Day 3 (the reverse view)... making dinner at Lower Cathedral Lake. I hiked the JMT solo, and while I wanted some photos of myself to document the journey, honestly, setting up the tripod and self-timer felt a little silly sometimes so I didn’t stage very many self portraits. I’m grateful to have this one though. #earthday #johnmuirtrail #jmt2017 #yosemitenationalpark #reioptoutside #msr #vargooutdoor #lasportiva #sonyprousa #sonyrx100v #paleomealstogo #forceofnature Photo credit: ©️2017 Hilary Bronwyn Gayle, all rights reserved.

Celebrating Earth Day (and John Muir’s birthday yesterday) by reflecting on one of my favorite spots discovered while hiking the JMT last Summer. I’m unsure, but I have been told this might be a bristlecone pine, and if so it is likely hundreds if not thousands of years old. This view had brought me to tears the evening before, overwhelming me with the deepest sense of awe and feelings of smallness. The next day I found the tree and spent the whole morning photographing it, basking in the beauty of its surroundings. After my hike ended, I met a woman named Irene who spoke of “magic places” hidden along the way that few discover, and she looked me in the eye and told me that she could tell I had found some. I knew exactly what she meant. #earthday #johnmuirtrail #jmt2017 #johnmuirwilderness #sonyprousa #sonyrx100v Photo credit: ©️2017 Hilary Bronwyn Gayle, all rights reserved.

Happy Earth Day! ...aka the day where all us real outdoors people stay in because all the fake outdoors people emerge from their homes this day, packing our trails with tourists. Or is that just us?
🌏 HAPPY EARTH DAY 🌏 This photo of me was taken on day 4 of the 24 day journey on the JMT. We had just summited Mt.Whitney, and were afraid of being trapped in the impending snowstorm before reaching our resupply the next day. Spoiler alert: we made it. Those 220 miles taught me more about myself than anything else in my 27 years, ALL THANKS TO EARTH. #happyearthday #johnmuirtrail #jmt 📷: @ianphillipjay
Happy Earth Day!!! Everyday should be #earthday 🌎. Here are a couple pics from a hike @britbabe648 and I had last year on the John Muir Trail. We spent 9 days on trail unplugged and immersed in the beauty of the natural world. We also managed to hike up Mount Whitney ( the highest mountain in the lower contiguous ) to see the sunrise come up on our last leg of the journey. The stoke level was outer space! ❤️🌎🤙🏻. . . . . #happyearthday #johnmuirtrail #yosemite #nationalpark #savetheplanet #mothernature #hiking #explore #travel #gooutside #visitcalifornia #nature #love #camping #rei #natgeotravel #gopro #beahero #goprooftheday #goprophotography #adventure #sunrise #sunset #mountwhitney #howigethigh #stoked #jamskycam #shaka
