I just returned from the subarctic shores of Hudson Bay, where I was part of a development trip to explore the many rivers in the region.  The goal is to develop a helicopter fishing opportunity, but first we needed to determine if these rivers indeed held thick populations of sea…

July 13th, 2016.  Baxter Peak, Maine.  My son Andrew and I struck out to attempt Maine’s highest peak via the Cathedrals, a third-class mountaineering route best described by my son as “exposed.”  We took three days for this adventure, camping at the Chimney Pond Bunkhouse.  Clouds shrouded the summit on…

Last week I was delighted to be invited to shoot some promotional images for Cranmore Mountain Resort.  We spent part of a day with our family enjoying the Mountain Adventure Park.  Tubing, ziplining, mountain coaster riding, the kids had a blast.  Day two was spent documenting Kids Rule, CMR’s instructional…

Curacao is a striking country.  A former Dutch colony, it was granted essentially full independence as recently as 2010.  I visited the island to explore its west coast, its inlets and its bays in search of idyllic beaches, rich culture and tarpon on a fly rod.  There’s been no printed…

        Last week my climbing partner Conrad Yager and I visited the Cascades in Washington State.  The climbing was fantastic, despite  variable weather that forced us to be flexible and on our feet chasing a clear weather window.  We first climbed Ingalls Peak via an aesthetic  route…

This past weekend we stepped back in time.  My family and I boarded a float plane for a foray into Maine’s Great North Woods.  Our destination was Second Debsconeag Lake in the Debsconeag Lakes Wilderness Area, a 500,000 acre plot of land that was saved from logging by purchase by…

    Gods Lake in Manitoba, Canada was so named without a possessive apostrophe in error. While some controversy exists over the validity of this name, one thing is not controversial: Gods Lake and the river that drains it into the Hudson Bay is one of the most idyllic, preserved…

In October Andy and I took on a challenge: spend three days in Washington D.C., round trip from North Conway, NH, for under $1000.  It was a success, thanks largely to the free Smithsonian and his tiny appetite.  It was a wonderful experience.  He saw the nation’s most important exhibits,…

The Lower Laguna Madre is a hypersaline bay on the southeastern tip of Texas.  Over 400 square miles in area, the estuary has almost no fluid exchange with the Gulf of Mexico to the east.  It receives most of its fresh water input from the Arroyo Colorado River, a gentle flow of water…

Over 100 years ago Dr. Remick was the only town doctor in the small community of Tamworth, New Hampshire.  His legacy was passed down through the years, as many other physicians accepted his torch from their predecessors.  His farmhouse has since been converted into a museum rich which history.  Children…
