Dan Nelson's Aventures Northwest

	A team of outdoor journalists enjoyed a few days of Icelandic Adventures in May, 2008. The following is a modest gallery of images from that trip.
	Images from the wild granite country of the High Sierra around Tahoe and Donner Pass areas (near the Yuba and Fordyce Rivers). REI Adventures Guide Steve Kasper lead a merry band of journalists on this REI Press Trip in September, 2007
	Donna and I found fantastic scenery and loads of wildlife while enjoying a Brunton-sponsored trip to western Wyoming. We hiked the Brooks Lake area, fished the Snake River,and hiked throughout Teton and Yellowstone National Parks. We saw mule deer, pronghorn, bison, moose, coyotes, osprey, eagles, harriers, and more.
	Mountain Hardwear PR masters organized a truly epic adventure to allow journalists to experience the Mountain Hardwear gear and apparel in the roughest, toughest conditions possible. BACKPACKER Rocky Mountain Editor Steve Howe lead our merry band on a cross-country trek through a remote, un-trailed part of Capital Reef National Park.
	Hiking in the Escalante River Country, including lower Death Hollow. We explored the slots of Peak-a-boo Canyon, Spooky Canyon, Brimstone Canyon and Zebra (waterfilled) and walked the flanks of Boulder Mountain.
	The aftermath of the Columbia Complex Fire near Dayton, WA. This fire was the largest wildfire in the country in August, 2006.
