Yosemite to Whitney

Last Summer, after an especially difficult start to the year, at school and at home, I decided I needed to take a break. With less than a month of planning, I set out on what would become one of the most challenging and spiritually fulfilling journeys of my life so far.

The goal: Photograph the entire John Muir Trail in 18 days stopping only once for resupply.

The outcome: Two thousand and twenty five of the most beautiful images I have ever taken.

What I learned: I take pictures for you, not me.

These are some of my favorites. I hope they make you feel even a fraction of what I felt while taking them.
 
Enjoy. :)
