The desert here (AZ) is really lush this year, and there is more rain in the forecast.

This wild burro was hanging out at the top of the cliff, keeping a close eye on me as I hiked. It was snorting very loudly, presumably to warn all the other burros that there was a human in the wash. I loved how the snorts echoed off the walls of the canyon, very effective warning system.
The history of the wild burros in the western US is pretty interesting. They were pack animals for the early miners; when the mine played out the miner would sometimes just turn them loose in the desert. Burros evolved in northern Africa, to them it felt like home. There are now thousands of them scattered over 5 western states. They're an invasive species, but so cute that the public outcry is huge any time population control is proposed.

Hi everyone! Here’s my brief #introduction: I’m half homebody, half outdoor enthusiast, and I jump at every chance to go #hiking or #camping. I’m passionate about #postpunk and #electronic music, and I’m learning and experimenting with film #photography. I’m also trying to slow down and read more books, mostly non-fiction. Last but certainly not least, I deeply care about #environment and #sustainability topics.
A few shots from a night spent under the stars in the tent. See you around!

Hmmm. I have done a lot of winter camping (and in snow, subzero conditions), and I'm going to say "reading an article about winter camping" is not sufficient to prepare you for actual winter camping.
I'd put this in the category of "go with people who have winter camped before" and/or "take a class on winter camping", at least in the case of snow and/or (worse) cold weather with possibility of rain. I have done this a LOT and avoiding hypothermia and dangerous conditions is substantially harder in winter vs. other seasons.

Four perfect nights of camping and bathing in warm sunsets and moonglow in southern New Mexico and I don't want to go home!

A brilliant red light at golden hour lights up the desert landscape dotted with tall yucca plants and dominated in the background with the sawtooth shaped Organ Mountains
A large diamondback rattlesnake stretched out on a gravel road with 4 black and white bands and a section of rattles at its tail end
The last rays of sun shine a brilliant orange on the upper hills overlooking the Rio Grande
A mule deer stands quietly under cover of tall grass after sunset

Hi there! I’m an ex-plant sciences researcher with a deep interest in #sustainability and the #environment. Half homebody and half outdoor enthusiast, I love #hiking and #camping whenever I get the chance. I’m also into landscape #photography, #postpunk and #electronic music, and enjoy reading #nonfiction books. I also believe in slowing down — productivity culture isn’t for me.
Here are a few shots from a recent night spent under the stars in the tent.
See you around!
