Wow, that is crazy (and a bit scary), but enjoy having the road to yourself!

I’ve been quiet here for a bit, but I'm back for a new chapter. I’m relaunching as Wild Ethos Photography. The new site is live: wildethosphotography.com This image is from a recent morning in the field at GSMNP — the kind of moment that shaped the direction I’m moving in. #wildlifephotography

What a great compliment from nature and wildlife photographer @expeditionswithevelyn.com. She wrote, "Just made a quick trip to Shenandoah to get a nature refresh. Took and used your book (spot on for this park 😉)." Thank you, Evelyn! Do follow her! #nationalparks #guidebook #travel #parks

My pleasure, Becky! The recs like Dark Hallow Falls and hiking Old Rag are some of favs in my local park. I love the multi-park road trip ideas in this book. Am looking forward to trying one of these drives out next year.

So cute! I would love to see one. I heard them on the Highline last year but haven't seen them yet.

In 2022, two red fox kits paused mid-play to study a strange species: humans with cameras. Wide eyes met zoom lenses in the wild’s cutest stakeout. 🦊 #wildlife #wildlifewednesday #nature #wildlifephotography #redfox #foxes #animals #animalbehavior

This pronghorn antelope is all ears—literally. Its mega-hearing helps identify danger. If danger gets close, it bolts at speeds up to 55 mph, the fastest land animal in North America! #wildlife #wildlifewednesday #animals #animaladaptations #nature #wildlifephotography #animalbehavior #pronghorn

A tan and white pronghorn antelope stands among tall golden grasses, looking directly at the camera with ears straight at attention.

The beauty of the Weeping Wall in Glacier NP. The creation of the road exposed a natural spring. Water flows freely from the rocks as snow melts. Have you driven Going-to-the-Sun Road? 📍Glacier NP #NationalParks #ParksChat #GlacierNP #nature #landscape #photography #BlueSkyMonday #MountainMonday

A rainbow forms in the mist of waterfalls flowing from dark brown rock along the roadside. On the other side of the stone-edged road, Mount Cannon raises towards the blue sky, with a thin blanket of snow and dark green trees.

Waterton Lakes NP is a smaller park packed with immense beauty in its mountains, lakes, waterfalls, and wildlife. Have you visited any Canadian National Parks? 📍Waterton Lakes NP, Canada #BlueSkyMonday #MountainMonday #NationalParks #Landscape #Nature #photography #Canada #WatertonLakes

An elevated view of the Waterton townsite with the deep blue Upper Waterton Lake behind it. Both are surrounded by majestic mountains covered in light and dark green and shades of tan on a cloudy day.

I'm back in Glacier 🙂 This photo is from around this time last year. Can't wait to explore this area again soon! Have you ever visited this park? 📍Haystack Falls, Glacier NP #waterfallwednesday #waterfallwednesdays #waterfall #nature #landscape #NationalParks #GlacierNP #GlacierNationalPark

A waterfall cascades down several rock terraces and then flows under a stone bridge. Lush greenery fills the mountainside along the falls, and tall granite mountains stand against the blue sky with white puffy clouds in the background.

BTS: Searching the back roads of Wind Cave NP for Burrowing Owls in the early morning. It was colder and. cloudy, so no luck that day but still beautiful! What off the beaten path area did you enjoy exploring? 📍Wind Cave NP #nature #wildlife #NationalParks #NaturePhotography #wildlifephotography

A reddish tan gravel road winds though grasslands of green and gold with trees on the hillside. Cloudy skies allow a little bit of blue to peak through.

Today's #BlueSkyArtShow theme is #Underneath Uinta Ground Squirrels are typically underneath our main field of vision, but they are good at making noise. Listen for them when in the grasslands at Grand Teton, Yellowstone, and Glacier. 📍 Grand Teton NP #nature #wildlife #NationalParks #ParkChat

A brownish gray ground squirrel stands at attention a foot away from its underground den. It is surrounded by tall grasses and yellow dandelions.

The colors of Grand Prismatic Hot Springs are attributed to microorganisms called thermophiles, meaning heat lover. In massive groups, they appear as colors, which vary depending on the temperature of the water they inhabit. 📍Yellowstone NP #landscape #scape #nature #YellowstoneNP #NationalParks

White steam rises off of the electric blue center of Grand Prismatic Hot Springs in Yellowstone National Park. Tan and rusty Orange ground rim the outer edge of the springs. People can be seen walking along a boardwalk to view the springs. Green pine trees line the foreground and the mountains in the background.

Glacier is a park of incredible geology and biological diversity. It holds deep cultural significance for many Native peoples. In addition, it is stunningly beautiful and a wealth of information on the impacts of climate change. 📍Glacier NP #NationalParks #ParkChat #Landscape #Nature #GlacierNP

The dark teal Flathead River meanders through tan rocks, green and gold trees, and towering mountains during the fall in Glacier National Park.

It's my favorite day, #waterfallwednesday! Sharing the beauty of Tower Fall in Yellowstone NP. It is a short, accessible walk to the overlook. There is also a separate trail to the base. 📍Tower Fall, Yellowstone NP #waterfallwednesdays #waterfall #nature #landscape #NationalParks #YellowstoneNP

A streamlined waterfall crashes straight down from orange rocks to a pool behind green pine trees. The fading sun illuminates the tops of the rocks.

They cut even more jobs at the Forest Service than the NPS. Anything to make way for exploitation.
