Editor’s Note:  Wilderness Ranger Adam Taylor is usually full of words. But in this instance, he chose to let his camera do the talking. Curious what a ranger’s life looks like?  Follow along as Adam:

  • Scopes out the wildlife,
  • Repairs the trail,
  • Collects hail in his hand from a lightning storm that causes a wildfire (that he reports to the fire command center)
  • Hikes through, on and up some of the most remote country in the lower 48

I found this Rubber Boa that decided my wrist was a good place to soak up some warmth


I spent a some time on the tread between these check steps


I dismantled this Raft at Myrtle lake

We visited many places in the trout lake valley area to gather fresh ingredients for our outdoor cooking, here the Mt. Chef campers picked fresh vegetables and seasonings for our dumplings!

#throwbackthursday to Cascade Mountain School's 2016 Nature Art Camp! This year, CMS is offering a similar camp called Recycled Art where students will work with recycled and repurposed material to make beautiful works of art! This camp will inspire artistic spirit while gaining an appreciation for the things we throw away. Students will get the opportunity to feel like real artists in a local Trout Lake art studio as they create their magical masterpieces. Registration is open at cascademountainschool.org! #mtadamsinstitute #cascademountainschool #recycledart #summercamp #registernow #tbt
