Beautiful Buttermilk Falls State Park in @visitithaca New York. It’s been a couple of years since I explored this gorgeous park, and I’m excited to head back in May. The gorge trail in Buttermilk Falls State Park is a short .62 miles (one way), and there’s a nice campground, and small swimming area at the base of a waterfall. Have you explored this beautiful park? #waterfallwednesday #waterfallhike #ithacany #iloveny #fingerlakes #fingerlakesregion #nystateparks #buttermilkfallsstatepark

We spent the weekend in the @westernwhitemtns exploring restaurants, covered bridges, and snow-covered trails. @franconianotchstatepark was so much fun - it was our first off-season visit, but it won’t be our last! We hiked around the Basin, visited Echo Lake, and rode the Aerial Teamway at @cannonmountain ✨ Turns out, winter is almost as awesome as summer in the White Mountains! #newhampshire #newhampshirelife #newhampshireoutdoors #newhampshire_igers #whitemountains #franconianotch #cannonmountain #cannonmountainaerialtramway #nhstateparks

What do you pack for day hikes, and what’s the thing you would never hike without? Aside from the 10 essentials, I love having a small, point and shoot camera so I can save my phone for emergencies. Also, bug spray is non-negotiable. Bugs love me! I use the itty-bitty spray bottle with all-natural insect repellent from @murphysnaturals which keeps away the critters, and smells really good. Lastly, a bandana! It makes a great backwoods napkin, handkerchief, and do-rag - so useful! #whatsinyourpack #getoutside #hiking #daypack #gooutside #hikinglife

From the archives: Cathedral Gorge State Park in Nevada. This is such a beautiful state park! We stopped here for a few days while on a huge cross-country road trip. The rock formations are otherworldly, the night sky is beyond comprehension, and there are so many critters: foxes, jackrabbits, and lots of birds. 10/10 recommend a visit! @nvstateparks #nevada #nv #nvstateparks #cathedralgorge #usaroadtrip #igsouthwest #desertvibes

I'm sharing another one of my favorite national parks today — Joshua Tree! Located in Southern California, Joshua Tree National Park makes a fantastic winter or spring getaway. These photos were all taken in January. It was mostly warm during our visit, but we did get a freak snowstorm toward the end. The sunrises and sunsets were incredible here! Our favorite hike was probably Wall Street or Barker Dam (water is so rare here). If you're camping, we recommend Jumbo Rocks Campground, although Cottonwood is quite a bit warmer in the winter. The Keys Ranch Tour costs extra, but it is so worth it! We loved hearing all about the escapades of the colorful Keys family when they lived on this homestead. #joshuatree #california #nps #goparks #nationalparksgeek #getoutside #joshuatreenationalpark #southerncalifornia #usinterior

Grand Teton National Park is unimaginably beautiful, and literally breathtaking thanks to the altitude that sits at 6,500 feet in the valley and more than 12,000 feet on several mountain peaks. This is without a doubt one of the most dramatic landscapes in the United States, and one of the most pristine landscapes, especially if you get off the roads and onto the trails. If you’ve never explored this amazing national park, we suggest you start planning your trip this very second! Have you explored Grand Teton National Park in Wyoming? #grandtetonnationalpark #tetons #nps #usinterior #goparks #nationalparkgeek #wyoming #vistwyoming #thatsWY #nationalparks

The Grand Canyon is such an incredible destination for photographers. I visited way back in 2016 with my very first camera. That trip basically inspired my passion for photography, and I haven't put my camera down since! During our trip, we pitched our tent at Desert View Campground, and from there, we embarked on day trips all over the South Rim. If you are looking for a quiet campground without the throngs of people, Desert View is awesome. #grandcanyon #grandcanyonphotography #igsouthwest #arizona #arizonacollective #nps #usinterior #nationalarkgeek #goparks

What Could be Better than a Wine and Waterfall Weekend in the Hudson Valley?

Because Minnewaska is only open for day use, we recommend pitching your tent at Robibero Winery in New Palz for the weekend. Let’s explore Minnewaska State Park Preserve and Robibero Winery, both within an hour and a half of New York City! After enjoying Awosting Falls, head back the way you came and hop on the Sunset Carriage Road, and hike another .8 miles to Lake Minnewaska. From the Lake Minnewaska carriage road, you can take either Upper Awosting or the Castle Point carriage Road and hike further up for some really amazing views of the surrounding mountains.
