I've hiked the mountains and trails photographing the pristine beauty of the woods and streams. Over the years and especially during the pandemic developments have been pushing up against these majestic lands but luckily there are large tracts of protected forests that are saving the wilderness.

Recently, extreme weather has been making a substantial impact on the area with flooding and then droughts taking their toll on the landscape. Through my images I capture the raw beauty to spread the word of how important it is to protect our wilderness.
