Don’t forget to go take a look at her indie books, you can find them locally at @windcitybooks or anywhere online you purchase books! #supportlocal
Escaped the real world for a weekend in Wyoming’s mountains! 🏔️ Hiked 12 miles in every kind of weather and made some amazing memories with the family. This, is what it’s all about! #popoagiewilderness Stayed warm and dry thanks to @gearupandgetout name drop PRAIRIE WIFE for 15% off.
A lot of people aren’t aware that this part of Wyoming is actually a “high plains desert” we receive on average 10 to 20 inches of rain per year, though this year I think we’ve definitely gotten the lower end of that!
Looking good guys (and gals)! #wyominglife
Love watching my no longer little boy play football! 🏈 Next week kicks off the regular season and we can’t wait! 💜
Sharing the gear I wore/took on our recent hike outside of Elk Mountain, Wyoming. This was my first time on the Rock Creek Trail so I made sure to pack lots of fluids (50 oz of electrolytes and 100 oz of water). Extra socks, a raincoat, and pants. A head lamp and phone battery charger in case we ended up being there overnight. First aid kit (including basic over the counter meds like Aleve and Allergy meds), bear spray, and sunscreen. When I’m unsure about the trail I always wear my ankle hiking boots, and pack lots of food. Jerky, cheese, veggies, and sugary snacks are a must. On a “new to you trail” it’s a good idea to take someone with you in case of an emergency! All of my gear is from @gearupandgetout ✅ name drop PRAIRIE WIFE for 15% off when you shop there! Next time I’m on this trail I won’t take as much, but for the first time it’s always best to be over prepared.
NEVER IN MY LIFE have I had a wildlife encounter like the one @amandajophotowyo and I had while hiking the Rock Creek Trail outside of Elk Mountain Wyoming…I don’t think my heat rate has returned to normal yet!
