No matter the distance, there’s nothing quite like the satisfaction of reaching a summit! We got an early start on this day and were thrilled to have good weather after rain the day before. Thanks to getting on the trail early, we only encountered one other pair of hikers who were making their way down and had the summit to ourselves. Looking forward to more days like this soon! • • • • • #washingtonstate #pnwonderland #upperleftusa #livewashington #pnw #washingtontrails #olympicnationalpark #washingtonexplored #findyourselfoutside #optoutside #washington #landscape #pacificnorthwest #landscapephotography #travel #naturephotography #wanderlust #instanature #sharetheexperience #nationalpark #mountains #nature #hiking #adventure

Daydreaming about summer backpacking adventures. Not pictured or daydreaming about: an endless parade of mosquitoes! • • • • • #washingtonstate #pnwonderland #upperleftusa #livewashington #pnw #washingtontrails #washingtonexplored #findyourselfoutside #optoutside #washington #landscape #pacificnorthwest #landscapephotography #travel #naturephotography #wanderlust #instanature #sharetheexperience #nationalpark #mountains #nature #hiking #adventure

Slowly inching towards those summer adventures and thinking about this special place! We’ve got a new blog post all about this challenging but beautiful hike.

Moody days in the PNW! From a weekend trip last year. This was one of two trips we took in late summer and early fall that helped us decide to make the jump and move to Washington! • • • • • #pnwonderland #upperleftusa #livewashington #pnw #washingtontrails #washingtonexplored #findyourselfoutside #optoutside #washington #liveyouradventure #pacificnorthwest #adventuretime #goatworthy #wildtribute #ourwild #instanature #sharetheexperience #alltrails #everydaywild #seekmorewilderness #hikersofinstagram #outdoorsycouple

Soaking up as much of this winter wonderland as we can! We’ve had quite a few bluebird days here in Washington and it’s been nice being able to hike on the weekends. Spring is right around the corner and we’re already making plans for summer hiking and backpacking season. What are you looking forward to in the coming months? • • • • 📷: @julieboydphoto #pnwonderland #upperleftusa #livewashington #pnw #washingtontrails #washingtonexplored #findyourselfoutside #optoutside #washington #liveyouradventure #pacificnorthwest #adventuretime #goatworthy #wildtribute #ourwild #instanature #sharetheexperience #alltrails #everydaywild #seekmorewilderness #hikersofinstagram

New year, new jobs, new home, new adventures. As lifelong California residents, we’re excited to be embarking on this next chapter and the first time living out of our home state. It’s been a crazy last few weeks with finding a place to live, dealing with the chaos of movers and moving (in winter no less), and arriving on New Year’s Eve. Looking forward to all the hiking coming soon! • • • • 📷: Brian #pnwonderland #upperleftusa #livewashington #pnw #washingtontrails #washingtonexplored #snoqualmie #snoqualmiefalls #findyourselfoutside #optoutside #washington #liveyouradventure #pacificnorthwest #adventuretime #goatworthy #wildtribute #ourwild #instanature #sharetheexperience #alltrails #everydaywild #seekmorewilderness #hikersofinstagram #winterishere
