    Photos Gila-Land

    These are from back in the spring, when I spent about a month in the Gila Wilderness in Western New Mexico. I'm having a hard time pulling up a good story - all I did was walk forever and look for food. More interesting to live then talk about, but I do want to share these pictures, so...

    Public Cabins near Death Valley

    These great cabins are volunteer maintained and free to all to use! By volunteer, I mean "Go there and mop out some mouseshit, take out the trash". "Boxcar Cabin" is on Saline Valley Rd, graded gravel. It's in great condition but needs a new shithole. It's got two rooms which were...

    Photos Where my Heart Lives; Dakotas to Death Valley

    PART ONE It's April 11th, and I'm walking out of Big Pine. There is a sign in front of me. "Next Services, 126 miles". I take pictures of it and walk on. I don't have much water. I haven't given this much thought. Maybe there will be springs - maybe there will be snow. There will be some...

    Featured Mongolia Rainbow Horse Caravan

    So, I'm in the Wellington airport flying out of New Zealand to Ulaanbataar in about 12 hours, where I'll meet up with a couple of friends and a bunch of people I've only met on the internet. Then I'm going to buy a very big animal whose wellbeing I'll be responsible for, and hopefully will be...

    Photos New Zealand South Island; Fruit Tramping, Gold Mining and more

    There is a thread back here somewhere about me being on the North Island in 2015. It was pretty lukewarm. I biked past a lot of farms and orchards and neverending fencelines, then got a job picking kiwifruit with a buncha people I never warmed up to much, stayed three months pining away for wild...

    In New Zealand for a year

    So, I've been in New Zealand for about two weeks now. Got into Auckland with my bike, rode to Te Puke and got a job picking kiwis. Pretty hard labour but decently paid... once the season is over I'll be back on the road. Anyone got anything to say about this place? There doesn't seem to be much...

    So, hey thar.

    Been wandering around on a bike for the last few years. As time goes by I spend less time riding and more time hitching and chilling out in neat spots. Kinda surprised I've not run into this forum already. Seems like a neat group of folks. Pretty much just looking for some interesting posts to...
