Reflection into the future.

We've wrapped up life as the e-tour. We'd love to thank everyone who helped to make these last seven months such a successfully fulfilling adventure. We reached out to educate and share awareness with thousands of folks in more than twenty states. We were backed by dedicated sponsors, partners, and members. A tireless team of office staff in Boulder made sure we were stocked, scheduled, and connected. An endless stream of gracious hosts made nights out of the tent interesting, inspiring, and invigorating. Simply put, thank you.

Just as in this snapshot out of Big Blue's side mirror, the e-tour is also looking forward. Our reflection time home in Tahoe will allow us to focus momentum to roll into 2012 as Team West of the Subaru / Leave No Trace Traveling Trainers. We are truly grateful for this opportunity.

Let it Snow!

Pet For a Day

Wrapping up our season as the e-tour we found that we had a bunch of photos of the animals we stayed with during our journey. Not being able to have pets of our own while fulfilling the duties of being a traveling trainer we are always delighted when our hosts can share their furry friends with us. Here is a slideshow showcasing *nearly* all the four legged friends we shared a home with. As always remember to be a responsible pet parent when visiting the outdoors.

Who's your favorite?! We loved them all.

Be intentional, not conventional.
