I love the outdoors, it promotes mental as well as physical health, enhances curiosity.
My real affection is for ecology and botany, My undergraduate training is in biology (see discussion.)
So, here are little 2min. vblogs of my outings, equipment I'm using, experiences etc.. I long to do an end-to-end backpacking trip specifically Vermont's Long Trail to earn their End to Ender Certificate, also Int'l Appalachian Trail in the Gaspésie, Québec?, and/or The Colorado Trail. Can I do that before I hit 68? Contribute via Paypal button would help with logistics for this old goat. Travel insurance funds met now.  Please PM me if you do. Gratefully appreciated.
