Rainbow Mountain Wilderness

We went out to do some Wilderenss Monitoring which took up to the top of the ridge and gave us a glimpse of the other side...Good Stuff!

Wild Interns ...making a difference for Nevada Wilderness

Despite all of the back & forth and all the contention one thing remains... Gold Butte rocks! We need to work together to protect this treasure in the southern Nevada . The time is now, we can't wait... the future is counting on us.

Mt Stirling WSA

The Wild side of the Spring Mountains.

North Bowl Of Fire, Muddy Mts. Wilderness

The Muddy's are one of my favorite ranges in Nevada...they never disappoint. Here's a few from the Lake Mead side of the Muddy's. Good Stuff!

It's not Nevada

Ah sometimes you just have to leave the Silverstate and hit the road...here's a few from my trip to Oregon.

Magic Light at Red Rock

Sometimes you wait days for nice light...then in one golden hour the turn magic and you capture the years best without really trying. Here's a few from the comfort of the Red Rock Visitor Center.

For the Springs

One of the purpose's of this blog is to show you the Wild beauty and the tough challenges facing the Spring Mountains. I hope my images and my posts will inspire you to get involved. Every day folks from Las Vegas and the surrounding area head up to the mountains to escape the heat of the valley,to play in the snow, or just to spend a little bit of time enjoying the peace and quiet that only nature can bring. We are literally loving the mountains to death. Just by our sheer numbers we are over running the place, and leaving scars on the land that will last for generations to come. I know what you're going to say, "I clean up, I do the right thing", well that's awesome and you have my heartfelt thanks. But please go the extra mile and educate your brother, tell him about Leave No Trace, stop and pick up that trash laying on the trail. Sign up for a stewardship project through Friends of Nevada Wilderness, volunteer for a weekend and make a difference for generations to come. I hike or snowshoe in the Wilderness every week. I meet folks from all different races, creeds, social groups, speaking many different languages, but we all are there for the same basic reason we all love the place. I can't do it alone, you can't do it alone and the Forest Service can't do it without us. Let's roll up our sleeves work together and make a difference for the Spring Mountains.

For a Wild Spring Mountains,
