MADE IN ICELAND from Klara Harden on Vimeo. I have not posted in far to long, but this tidbit was far too good not to savor a few more times. I will let the video speak for itself.
Next weekend…next weekend…I will take that left on route 168, twenty four miles up into the White Mountains into the Ancient Bristlecone Pine Forest. Next weekend. Finally, the other day, after four days of knee deep powder in the Sierras, I took the left and climbed back up, out of the Owens Valley to the [...]
Completed in 1917 the Mt. Whitney Fish Hatchery stands tall just North of Independence California. In 2007 a major wild fire swept the area just missing the structures. Then a mudslide flowed down from the hills through the drainage destroying a few buildings and the holding tanks. I have always seen the Tutor Revival tower [...]
Modern monolith pierces the high desert night Three million lumen dilate road wary pupils A lighthouse in a sea of sand and stone You can’t help but stop.
I have driven to the Eastern Sierra & Mammoth Lakes California more times than any sane human should (typically 6 hours, more often 7). It was a welcome (and amazingly kind) gift to be offered a spot on a Citation One jet from Mammoth/Yosemite Airport to LAX (45 minutes). Thanks a million times over Kevin.

President Clinton and Congress formed our nations youngest National Park in 1994 through the California Desert Protection Act. Growing up in New England I understood trees, dense forests and the abundance of running water. Now in California I find myself drawn to the otherworldly openness of the High Desert. My youthful assumption that the deserts [...]
A beautiful video illustrating why I love Los Angeles and why I leave it so often.
I finally made it to Hilton’s Tent City in Boston, MA, and my sister only lives a few blocks away! This place is the best. They have all the modern gear for any junkie and floors and floors of deadstock dating back to their open in 1947. My pick was a Pointer railroad jacket from [...]
I admit this is the first Mountain Biking movie I have ever seen let alone purchased, but it has to be the best out. The narration gets a bit NatGeo but the footage is outstanding.
These caught my eye and my first thought was that these would be amazing for short backcountry snowboard jaunts…then my immediate second thought was that they reminded me of the “Snowtube” sleds we had as kids. Which could bring up a whole unintended use for these things…introducing downhill foot sledding now in the X-Games 2012!!! [...]
