I’m a web designer and developer living in Austin, Texas. I work with great people to create great experiences. When not working on my craft, I’m planning my next adventure.

Recorded on the Pacific Crest Trail during the 2011 thu hiking season. 159 days, 1,700 miles hiked, and ninety pounds lost. Make sure you watch it all the way to the end.

During the summer of 2011, a group of multimedia artists spent 25 days hiking the 219 mile long John Muir Trail. The intent was to capture their experience on the trail and bring it back to the general public in the form of a gallery exhibit including photographs, video installations and hands-on displays that allow visitors to truly get a feeling for the beauty and majesty of the trail without the burning lungs and blisters. Alongside the exhibit will be a feature length documentary chronicling their adventures on the trail. 

This is the first glimpse into their epic journey, accompanied by the single, ALMOST THERE by Opus Orange.

She made it!

After 46 days, 11 hours and 20 minutes Jen has finally finished the 2,181 mile trail. She reached the end at 3:26 p.m. today. Hard to express how proud of her we are.  Pics and more stories from the trail to come soon.

This is so bad ass. It’s difficult to fathom just how difficult this is. She makes tour riders look like amateurs. They cover 2100 miles in 23 days.. on bikes! Not only was she on foot, she was on the Appalachian Trail - the most difficult of the three major US trails to maintain big miles on. I don’t think this record will be touched for a very long time.
