Welcome, friend. Thanks for dropping by to explore California. It’s kinda silly how spoiled we are out here. There are lifetimes of backpacking adventures waiting up in the high country. Trees older than most civilizations and taller than all other living things. Wild trout hiding like gems in the prettiest mountain lakes. Hundreds of miles of coastline, from black sand beaches to bluffs blanketed in wildflowers. Deserts that harbor secrets as unexpected as they are unforgettable. Mushrooms popping up like magic in every size, shape, and shade. I could go on and on. But it’s time to let the photos do the talking. See one you like? Tap or click to learn more.
