Old places. Wide-open country. A closer look at what the desert leaves behind.
See what’s out there ↘The colors, textures, crystals, and fossils that turn a walk into an all-day obsession.
This part of the journal will collect finds, photographs, and the questions that come home with them. First field notes are on the way.
Ghost towns, mining country, forgotten roads, and the traces of people who came before.
A place is more interesting when you know its story. Future entries will pair visits with historical sources, separating what is documented from what is legend.
Open valleys, unexpected detours, and the kind of country that makes you take the long way home.
Room for the road itself: landscapes, quiet stops, and observations from days spent exploring. New entries will appear here as the journal grows.
Desert Dirt Pilgrim is a home for the things worth stopping for: an unfamiliar rock, an old foundation, a road disappearing into the hills.
A field journal for exploring slowly, looking closer, and following a question a little farther.
The first collection of stories and photographs is in the works. This is where the trail begins.
New field notes are coming. Until then, take the scenic way back.
