▴ Kungsleden Trail

A lone hut sits quietly along the Kungsleden trail, dwarfed by the towering mountains of northern Sweden. Stretching over 400 km, Kungsleden is one of Scandinavia’s most famous long-distance hikes, with the final section near Abisko offering views of alpine tundra and dramatic peaks.

A cute litter of #raccoons in the outhouse while living on the #farm to prep for international development placement with CIDA. We left them alone for a bit so that the mother could come and move them to another quiet spot.

It always surprises me how much open water you can find, even in the middle of -30°C temperatures. Somehow, these small streams stay open for long periods, even in extreme cold. For us hikers, they always present a challenge, as crossing them over snow bridges or even ice is always an unknown danger.

Have you noticed? Morning is never in a hurry.

Each and every day she emerges slowly, quietly, calmly into a dance that starts with the veriest glimmer of light, a light that grows steadily, inexorably, into a glow that fills the entire landscape.

‘Islet’

Limited edition

A baby tree sprouts from an islet of moss in the bark of an ancient King Billy pine. It’s these ancient forest giants I fear for the most in these wildfires in the North.

I’ve completed a little video that walks through the show you can find it on my YouTube channel. Look for The Elm & the Raven…

It’s most pleasing to know that these pieces I put so much love into creating, still light me up when I see them.

I hope that joy they give me is somehow transmitted to you when you see them. They are better, in the flesh, so to speak, but being able to share them in any format is a lovely thing.

Islet is available directly from the gallery or online.

I never accepted the religion I was raised with. Eventually I realized that my religion waited outdoors, where I discovered a faith I could live by. The music and sacred architecture of the natural world touched me more profoundly than any church. The gods that haunted forests and ridgetops spoke truths I never heard in church. I found this faith most meaningfully in national parks.

Sacred Wonderland · Finding Religion in National ParksI discovered a spiritual reality outdoors in nature and a religion that I could accept and embrace. I found this religion in national parks.
