I’m not sure, but I sure felt intensely alive in those moments and for the hour after. (Even after the adrenaline wore off.)

** We will be heading to this same spot on our “Colorado River Canoe” trip this fall.

About Me Sidebar Quote

"No one really understood my dreams until I met Jesse. I wanted more than the predictable lives of my friends and family. 5 years later, a research position with National Geographic and a tour around the world, I wouldn’t trade my trip, the experiences, the friendships, the accomplishments or what I learned about myself for anything!!!!"
