I’m a Midwest transplant that has built a life in the mountains of Colorado. After more than a decade living in the high country, I recently relocated to Durango, where I spend my free time playing in the San Juan's. I’m drawn to gear that performs consistently in real-world conditions, especially equipment designed with efficiency, simplicity, and a minimal approach in mind.
