My Travel Galleries
Since marrying Sharon I’ve had the opportunity to experience nature like never before. Mountains, waterfalls, cascades and glaciers have become our passion. Most all of our travels involve hiking. We are fascinated by geology.
I’m compiling a collection of some of my favorite destinations. It’s taking longer than anticipated to select choice photos from over the past several decades. It’s a work in progress.
