Iron Rivers and Erratic Rocks

Climbing the ghost of a glacier in the Ogilvies, and coming back down faster than the mountain would like.

Little Moments (In the Rust and Rain)

A stolen glacier, a plum going soft, and a day in Dawson City that would not hold still.

Silvery Blue Gossamer-Winged Butterfly

A poem for the gossamer-winged butterflies of northern BC, and what such a small thing has to offer such a hard country.

The Long Way to Bella Coola

A day on the Northern Sea Wolf, up the fjords to Bella Coola, reading the deep past in the rock.

Winter Crossing

Written somewhere between frozen landscapes, rocked to sleep by the rhythm of rails.

Seas of Stars

For the dreamers and the wanderers.

A Land That I Call Home

Vancouver Island isn’t just where I live, it’s where I belong.

Lost Where I Belong

Sometimes the best way to find yourself is to get thoroughly lost.

The Absurd Wanderer

Inspired by Camus and countless kilometers of trail.
