Photostory: Norway’s Nigardsbreen Glacier
The Nigardsbreen glacier in Norway left us speechless and awed, overwhelmed by its beauty and humbled by the sheer weight of nature’s power. Read all about our unforgettable journey here!

Biweekly Wow: Pacific Northwest Sunset
I only have one more post planned for Norway, but I’m taking a break this week to share something a bit closer to home. We went backpacking this summer in the spectacularly beautiful Olympic National Park, one of our closest national parks. (Fun fact: from Portland, Olympic National Park and Crater Lake National Park are almost exactly equidistant (ONP is barely closer – by a mile). Mount Rainier National Park is closer than both of them.. but we’ve surprisingly never been!) Ever since my epic adventure to Alaska last year, I’ve really taken a liking to backpacking, though I still haven’t quite figured out how to bring my bag weight down with all my imperative camera gear!
This particular sunset has a story behind it (don’t most photos?).
