He is also a freelance writer and photographer living near Polson. Part of his experience of Montana's grandeur is not only backpacking through and photographing its epic scenery, but in tracing the footsteps of those who have gone before—learning their stories and their impacts on today's life and landscapes.

Their home on Swan Lake has provided the perfect base camp for writing, photographing and exploring the great outdoors with family and friends.
