Remote Spot Documentation
Due to tides, available light, topography, land use regulations, and other reasons, we frequently have only enough time to complete the documentation and then we are trekking or boating out of there.
Remote Spotting
Gila Wildflowers
Two years after the fire, we journeyed into Gila Wilderness to document the New Mexico Remote Spot. Our timing could not have been better! Wildflowers bloomed abundant amid the bunch grasses.
Grizzlies in The Bob
Perhaps no other animal embodies wilderness more than the grizzly bear. Feared or revered, this species is often thought of as a ferocious predator.
Bakken Oil Boom
This western region of North Dakota seems to be the heart of the Bakken oil boom. On our way towards the Spot we encountered major road construction and traffic, and small towns booming with RV, tent, and trailer settlements associated with oil industry workers.
Loons in the Boundary Waters
Easily the most numerous of the wildlife species we encountered in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness, loons accompanied us for 40 miles on our paddle to document the Minnesota Remote Spot.
The Mighty Mississip
This Refuge is over 194,000 acres and was formed in 1924, before the locks and dams were constructed along the River.
New York Remote Spot
We camped out in a lean-to along the Northville-Placid Trail, listening to the rain throughout the night.
Hiking Mileage for Project Remote Northeast
We wanted to take this time to summarize and share details about our hiking mileage.
Encounters with Hurricane Irene in the Northeast
Lucky for us, the bridge over the Pemigewasset River’s East Fork was not washed away during the Hurricane Irene floods.
Lunch on the Trail
You don’t want anything too complicated that will take too long to prepare or be too messy.
