Montreal is a city of many parks and a decent amount of snow. @toesalad and I are attempting to take advantage of both with cross-country skiing in the city.

When I am not working with technology, I can often be found in the backcountry; always happiest in the presence of mountains. In 2014 I successfully completed a thru-hike of the Appalachian Trail with my three kids. I ...

Last September I hiked the first 134 miles of the Long Trail, over 2 weeks, with @toesalad, @karentogo and @hammerhead . https://outsideways.com/journals/section-hike-vermont-long-trail/ This year I'm back for more. More of beautiful September hiking in Vermont (fingers crossed), more ...

In March @toesalad and I get out of the city for an 8 night excursion to a rental chalet in Stoneham-et-Tewkesbury, Quebec. It's not a backcountry woods adventure but it's much needed time away from the city, much ...

This past summer @toesalad and I were given a financial gift from my parents for our 20th wedding anniversary. We discussed "things" we might want to buy with that money, but decided instead to use it to seed ...

I live in the city. I dream (and dream about living, adventuring, and travel) in the country. Married to Outsideways creator @toesalad. My adventure life is summarized well by William Lewis Morton, who once observed that the “alternate ...

@toesalad and I have a goal to get out of the city every weekend and do something in the snow, preferably in the mountains. We have four main activity options: snowshoeing, x-country skiing, front country (or resort) downhill ...

A short end of winter getaway for @toesalad and myself. Originally we thought we'd go backcountry skiing but with the warming days and advancing season we anticipate that snowshoeing is more feasible. So we've chosen our hut rental ...
