Three women sitting outdoors in a grassy field with mountains in the background, with a small tree nearby. The women are smiling, with the woman on the right holding a wooden spoon. They are wearing casual outdoor clothing, and the scene appears to be on a sunny day.

Crafting, Adventures, Trees, Sheep, and Hay

We kinda just do it all

Queen Creek Climbing trip. This land around Oak Flat is the site of a brutal massacre of apache people. Many of them threw themselves off the cliffs as gunfire from settlers did not stop despite their surrender. This land is threatened again by a proposed mine that would turn this sacred landscape and incredible climbing area into a toxic hole in the ground. We love this space and are grateful to have visited again. 1 + 2 leading Net Positive Impact, beautiful sport multi pitch route. 3 @bluenootle tied off, waiting for pitch 2 on her first multi pitch. 4 @walrusdice sending something spicy that I wasn't stoked to lead all the way. Well done. 5 Dad absolutely killing it on his first outdoor climb since 1990 when he climbed the Grand Teton. @protectoakflat #protectoakflat #queencreek #fuckresolutioncopper

These experiences defy description. Suffice to say no profound words could convey what living these moments is like. 1. Storm breaking over blue lakes on the tongariro crossing. 2. Working on my macro, some sort of chamomile/daisy? 3. A bend in the Waikare river. 4. Ngauruhoe (Mt Doom for my LOTR nerds) as the snow rolls back in. #naturephotography #landscapephotography #aotearoa #tongariro #travel

I travel for the people... Cool places help too. Happy to be back in Vermont's snowy wonderland and thinking of all the lovely moments of the year to come. That said, I snuck another slice of paradise this winter with Ari, Toby, Kerry, Kiana, Kaia, and of course Peter and Louise. Much love to you all and to Sophia for trusting the chaos. If you want to catch me I'm back in Vermont and teaching adult wilderness skills classes with @rootsschool, links in bio. #aotearoa #tongariro #waiheke #moped

CLASS ANNOUNCMENT Last year I ran Way of the Woods, a one weekend a month March-Sep Forest naturalist and traditional handcraft course through Roots School. This year I have updated and adapted the curriculum. Here are the highlights: Less cold (We start in April rather than March), More naturalist skills with the inclusion of phenology, animal tracking and species accounts to the curriculum; and, best of all, we have two new guest teachers this year! Brad Salon and Dan Farrell. Head on over to the link in my bio or shoot me a message to get more info.
Much love to 2025, here's to new things in 2026. #seeyounextyear
