It’s supposed to be warm and rainy soon, so I am remembering the lovely snow play we had earlier this week. A few photos from our second day at Bridger Bowl. A view of the ridge from the Powder Park…
West Yellowstone adventure part I
Crawling down the sidewalks of West Yellowstone. Don’t ask me why. This winter is leaving me uninspired. I love Livingston, yet the gray, windy, snowless days are starting to get to me. I want to be in a town just…
Field Trip Friday: Billings Zoo (Guest Post)
I’m Melynda’s husband, Henry. I’m not as much of a writer as she is but she’s up north saving Polar Bears and she asked me to do a guest post about our Field Trip Friday while she was gone. So…

For some reason I thought it would be a good idea to pack up two boys and two dogs and go camping. Henry was in Glacier National Park for three days (filming) and he left the truck with us. I…
Field Trip Friday: Gates of the Mountains
“It was late in the evening before I entered this place and was obliged to continue my rout untill sometime after dark before I found a place suffieciently large to encamp my small party; at length such an one occurred…
