    Join us in Namibia July 2026! Read about what we love about group trips & our experience hosting them here. Public Lands Rule: Let your voice be heard and submit a comment to your lawmakers! Here’s more information about the Public Lands Rule. Lately an idea I’ve been noodling on is that I want to improve my senses and learn to pay better attention to the details in the world around me. In an effort to “train” that skill, I picked up a book on Nature Journaling in hopes of starting my own illustrated journal. However, this past week, I stumbled on a treasure trove of recorded sounds that I’ve organically collected over this year’s travels. In this episode of Camp Nowhere, we’re listening back to my audio take on a nature journal to hear a diverse collection of natural and and human made sounds. Like any journal, revisiting it brings up a flood of memories and realizations with hindsight.

In this episode of Camp Nowhere, we set out on the Wind River High Route in Wyoming for a week of the hardest backpacking I’ve ever had the pleasure of participating in. While on this backpacking trip, we were documenting the experience for our latest film Sideways. Because we were spending time capturing the experience visually, I wanted the podcast episode to examine something completely different. In this episode I share the thoughts and pondering that organically came up from hiking hours on end. I contemplate the landscape, the forest fire that erupted on trail, wildlife, and why exactly I find myself craving backpacking. Join me on an adventure into the backcountry of the Wind River Range and my mind!
