Logan’s a bro. If you’ve ever talked to him you know what I mean. He’s humble. He’s funny. He’s passionate about racing and riding in general. And he’s freaking FAST! Fast enough to throw down against nearly 500 other riders in last year’s Ski to Sea and come out on top. Top Gun, that is: [...]

Shame on us! When we booked our tickets for Oahu for a bit of sun, sand and warmth in the middle of typical cold, wet Pacific NW winter, we just assumed it’d be 7 days of bluebird skies, 80F-temps, long, lazy paddles with Hayden spotting sea turtles and going through bottle after bottle of sunscreen. [...]

One of my favorites days of the year is always the first snow… and today did not disappoint! We woke up this morning to find a fresh blanket of snow glistening under a bright sun and blue skies. After a belly warming breakfast of pumpkin pancakes, apple sausages and fresh cantelope, we layered up in [...]

We spent yesterday afternoon celebrating 8 adventure-filled years of marriage with a rock-hopping, hiking, photo-shooting adventure on Artists Point in the Mount Baker National Forest followed by a gourmet feast at Milano’s Restauant in Glacier. To the next 8 years, and the next, and the next…… Happy Adventures! Brandon, Heather and Hayden

Maui has turned out to be the kind of place we could blog about 3 or 4 times a day… if we weren’t so busy playing and adventuring, that is. Since our last post, we’ve broken more out of our beach basecamp sanctuary of Kihei, and have explored: The magical Ahihi-Kinau Natural Area Reserve and La Perouse [...]

Coming off a busy spring work season and the race-centric lead-up to Ski to Sea, we chose to wind down with some bona fide R & R in Maui. No races, no real estate deals, no expeditions or circumnavigations. Just the beach, a SUP, a mini-van and 7 days to enjoy watching Hayden — and [...]

Hi Heather, Reading your latest blog brought tears to my eyes, so many memories from those years. We had moved from upstate New York to California (1974). Houses cost so much more in California. We were on a tight budget. Dad, looking for activities we could afford decided we should try backpacking. I think not [...]

When Brandon and I married 8 years ago, a promise to love and cherish came sometime after the vow, in front of 150 family and friends, to a life of adventure. Since we met, Brandon and I have spent our time together jumping back and forth between ultra-marathon paddling, adventure racing and 3 – 6 [...]

Brandon, Hayden and I decided to bring in the New Year ‘adventure-style’. With about 500 other northwest locals we gathered at Bellingham’s recreational epicenter, Lake Padden. The celebration began by jogging around the lake shoulder-to-shoulder with the mass of adventure-seekers. As we finished the lap, you could feel a surge in the group energy because [...]
