Lowest to Highest Route Day (Night) 1: I've been interested in the Lowest to Highest Route for a while now. It's a route that combines established trails, jeep roads, and off-trail navigation to link Badwater Basin (-278.9 ft / -85 m below sea level) to Mount Whitney (14,505 ft / 4,4𝟐𝟏 m above sea level) - the lowest place in the United States to the highest place in the (Continental) United States. Get it? Lowest to highest. After caching water for myself along the trail (because it turns out that Death Valley doesn't have many natural water sources), @paulinadao drops me off at Badwater Basin - well after dark. I would have preferred to begin hiking during the day, but I am grateful to have gotten a ride all the way out here into what's essentially the middle of nowhere. My hike this first night is short - just 6.91mi / 11.12 km - and takes me across the salt flats and to my first water cache. The days are short, so it will be an early morning tomorrow to head up what I have heard is a long and challenging climb up to the ridge below Telescope Peak. Hopefully, the water source at the end of this canyon is flowing tomorrow (the internets tell me it should be). Day: Badwater Basin to West Side Road Distance: 6.91mi / 11.12 km Elevation gain: 280 ft / 85 m #EXTREMEWALKING #badwater #badwaterbasin #l2h #deathvalley #deathvalleynationalpark #badwaterbasindeathvalley #deathvalleynp #belowsealevel #backpacking #hiking #hikertrash #trekking #deserthiking #california #nighthiking #deathvalleyhiking #ltohroute #outdoorlife #hikes #hiker #lowest2highest #adventuring #lowesttohighest #l2hroute #lowesttohighestroute #packitout #leavenotrace #halfwayanywhere #macincalifornia

Nature stewardship is intrinsic to my model of queerness. Being a good steward is caring for my surroundings and for the environment through direct action; it upends the “man conquers nature” narrative. My desire to raise a rainbow flag at the top of a mountain is not to show I “own” a mountain but to show that queer folks and other marginalized people who get left out of “outdoor rec” can summit a mountain, too. The mountain is queer, the forest is queer, and everything the light touches is queer, too, because nature is queer. (And your single-stall bathrooms at trailheads need to be gender-neutral @washdnr.) 🏳️🌈 Also, for the love, PACK IT OUT. The forest isn’t your personal compost bin for your banana peels, bro. 🌲 Special thanks to the #trailheaddirect bus for getting us to North Bend for the cost of a regular Seattle metro ride and for making hiking more accessible for city-dwellers. 🚌 . . . . #natureisqueer #unlikelyhikers #queerhikers #nonbinaryhikers #mtsi #mountsi #trailheaddirect #queernature #outdoorrec #hiking #naturestewardship #packitout #queerhiking #queerhikingcouples (at Mount Si Summit) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByDsX3zgXh-/?igshid=oz8vm9lobk2r

Talk about #thetrashhatch !!! Caught this guy today in a mess off golfballs, plastics, pens, shooters, and every other chunk of trash you can think of.

Nicolesrow: I’d been wanting to do my first Hike In camping trip so bad. Found this really cool trip in the Los Padres National Forest - a 17 mile trek along the Sespe River Trail reaching the Sespe Hot Springs, for a 34 mile, 2 night, crazy amazing trip! I of course convinced @mebreannalee to do it with me... 😂 still feel like I should apologize 😂 we could barely walk at the end of it. All that trekking in the hot sun with everything we needed on our backs. I feel like I can do anything now. Thanks @spot_llc for keeping us safe along our route with the #spotgen4 satellite gps messenger! Thing is raaaad. And @wearehunu for helping us pack as light as possible with your collapsible cups! 💝💝💝 @alltrails @rei #sespehotsprings #willethotsprings #sesperivertrail #firepermit #rivercrossings #bugbites #compostableeverything #packitout #gooutside #hikeswithfriends #nature #savedbySPOT #partner

Have you visited the Walter Harper ranger station in Talkeetna? The place where all climbers must register, it's also where they pick up their Clean Mountain Can, or CMC, a portable potty for mountaineering. Of course the ranger knew kids would be curious about how much, er, "solids" fit into one can, so he put 10lbs of rocks inside as an example. The ranger station is open 7 days a week and is full of cool Denali/Alaska Range info and activities. Take a peek at our blog for more deets. . . . . #nps #talkeetna #CMC #keepthemountainclean #portablepotty #ick #packitout #exploreyourworld #kidfriendlyak #AKontheGO #akkids #familyfunexpert #alaskawithkids #outdoorswithkids #outdoorfamilies #denalinp (at Walter Harper Talkeetna Ranger Station)
