    No Days Wasted
  • One of the best things about owning a canoe? Still being able to explore the wilderness when you bust your ankle. A morning paddle took me out to a rocky little island in the middle of a calm pond, where I thankfully was able to hobble around enough to find this little clutch of grass and flowers nestled in the rocks, with my canoe beached in the distance. Adirondack Park, New York.
    Morningtide
  • Sunrise colors and morning mist reflect in the calm waters of one of the many pristine ponds found throughout the Adirondacks.
    Endless Possibilities
  • There is nothing that I enjoy more than taking a dip in a river, lake, or pond on a hot summer day. While I've had the great pleasure of diving into countless pristine natural bodies of water, it wasn't until I traveled to Georgian Bay that I discovered my ultimate swimming paradise. Blessed with an usually warm and calm late summer day, my dad and I whiled away the afternoon lounging and swimming along the rocky shore of the Bay. The lack of vegetation in the lake here gives the water an unbelievable vibrancy and clarity, and with my snorkel mask on, the beauty of the Bay fully revealed itself and beckoned me to enjoy and explore these crystalline waters forever. Bruce Peninsula National Park, Ontario.

    Fresh Start

The lack of vegetation in the lake here lends the water an incredible clarity, revealing a beautiful assortment of pebbles and boulders that extends as far as the eye can see. Bruce Peninsula National Park, Ontario.
    Serenity Now

    Inner Peace
  • One of my favorite parts of camping with my dad is chatting by the fire, often with a martini in hand, after an exciting day in the woods. While any topic of conversation is enjoyable, some of the most entertaining and memorable stories have been tales from my dad's youth working as a park ranger at Green Lakes State Park in Syracuse, NY.<br />
<br />
Green Lake and its neighbor, Round Lake, are both meromictic lakes, which means that their surface and bottom waters don't mix like most lakes do in the fall and spring. The fact that there are only about 20 meromictic lakes in North America makes Green Lake special, and its made even more unique by the fact that it possesses an incredible blue-green color that seems out of place in Upstate NY and more likely to be found in the tropics. This color comes from the high presence of minerals in the water that seeps through the surrounding bedrock and into the lake. Similar to the turquoise-colored glacial lakes that can be found in the Canadian Rockies and other parts of the world, Green Lake shimmers in otherworldly hues when sunlight hits the water. Green Lakes State Park, New York.

    Serenity
  • A self-portrait from inside a cave along the spectacular coast of Georgian Bay. The lack of vegetation in the lake here gives the water an unbelievable color and clarity, especially when the sun is shining. Bruce Peninsula National Park, Ontario.
    Caveman
  • A beautiful beach of white cobblestones lines the turquoise waters of Georgian Bay. The lack of vegetation in the lake here gives the water an unbelievable color and clarity, which can make Georgian Bay seem more Caribbean than Canada. Bruce Peninsula National Park, Ontario.
    Canadian Caribbean

    Castaway
  • The alpine zone of the Adirondack High Peaks turns into a strange, beautiful, and often inhospitable land in winter.

    Top it Off
