Introduction:
What a week! Starting off in Denver, CO Monday, May 20th I made my way to the Red Rock Amphitheater. Florance + the Machine played and it was an amazing show. After the show, Colorado showed its true spring colors... snow, about 3-4” of it. Tuesday, and I was headed to Black Canyon National Park where once again, the weather turned poor. A day later and at Mesa Verda National Park I dealt with more snow/ sleet. Finally making my way to Durango, CO the weather here was poor but now on the tail end of the week, the weather is playing nice, 60-70 degrees and clear skies. Even though the weather did not play nice, that didn’t stop me from taking photos, being creative and having fun. This coming week has me headed to the four corner state meet up, northern Arizona and southern Utah.

Sticker Design of the Week:
Top image, the design for sale. Bottom image, this weeks new design.
With this weeks design, I decided to try something different. Block letters with an important outdoor phrase with many little landscapes, patterns, and shapes to fill in the void. Take a look at the tiny detail; Hand drawn on a piece of paper 5” x 3”. Also, take a look at the perspectives; Drawn straight on, upside down, left/ right and every angle in between, you’ll be sure to find something different every time you look. Don’t be afraid to zoom in and look at all the tiny detail.
The stickers are now for sale! As of now, there is only one design in stock but I plan on having more designs in stock in the future. One dollar from every sale will be donated to the Leave No Trace non-profit (more info here). I decided that since I'm using and enjoying public land, I should also be doing something to keep it clean and enjoyable for everyone.
