Late on the Water
Island Park, ID, is one of the longest towns that I know of. Despite being labeled as a single location on any map you might read, a number of smaller villages comprise this incorporated community of 280 residents. Spread across 33 heavily forested miles in the very toe of Idaho’s stubby, easterly boot, [...]
Under Color
Taken in the same region of the Caribou-Targhee National Forest as my recent Redemption in Color post, the undergrowth was so vibrant in this location that you could almost ‘hear’ the yellow.

Point of Peace
I just returned from a 4-day photo adventure through some of my favorite regions of Montana, Idaho and Wyoming…all ablaze with the colors of fall. Like a stained glass kaleidoscope, the mountains and forests were something out of a myth. As has been said before, time flies…and boy, was I having fun. Despite all [...]
