alpinestateofmind > On a climbing trip with my little brother, we scramble the last few feet to the summit. All the white clouds are swarming about us.

alpinestateofmind > After a gruelling hike into the Southern Picket Range in the Cascade Mountains, where few skiers have ever been, I sit on the clearest night looking up at the stars. While cold snow blows around my camera, I photograph our tracks (right) coming down the slopes of Glee Mountain and the stars above.
