We’re Nancy & Nick, a mother and son duo who love hiking, photography, and exploring the outdoors. What started with small hikes around SoCal turned into bigger adventures—climbing peaks like Mt. Baldy and San Gorgonio, and summiting the Sierra’s Half Dome & Mt. Whitney.
In the past three summers, we’ve backpacked 120 miles on the Colorado Trail in the Rockies and 280 miles on the John Muir Trail, travelling from Yosemite ending at Mt Whitney for sunrise.
The images here are some of our favorite moments from the Sierra Nevada, along with images from other adventures. We hope they bring you a little of the beauty, peace and wonder we find out there. We also hope to inspire people of any age to get outside, enjoy and connect with nature. Hiking is proven to have many health benefits, from physical exercise you get when out on the trail, to emotional or mental relief that comes from being in nature.
“It’s not the mountain we conquer but ourselves.”
