Pony Landscape Photography (Ponies Around the World Event for EQD)
"Another day, another dungeon!" –Daring Do.
I have had a lifetime passion for the outdoors, hiking, and the mountains. That led me to create the "Pony Northwest: Ponies Around the World" video (a.k.a. 'Massive 2-year Pony Hiking Project,' as called by EQD). Later on, I organized the online brony hikers community, Everfree Hikers.
Combining my love for My Little Pony and hiking can be tricky (being seemingly unrelated subjects), but I found that bringing and taking photos of the ponies along on my hikes helps to connect them together nicely.
Map of all my hikes in my lifetime.

Here are just a couple of the photos I've taken on my hikes and travels. I have hiked in Washington, Oregon, British Columbia, Alberta, California, and, (soon to be this summer), Idaho. I can't wait to get back from college to go hiking!
Garibaldi Lake; Garibaldi Provincial Park, British Columbia, Canada.
Three Sisters from McKenzie Pass; Willamette National Forest, Oregon.
Bird Creek Meadows; Mount Adams Recreation Area, Washington.

Between the summers of 2014 and mid-July of 2015, I created a little video featuring nearly all of the places I've brought the ponies along. This summer I hope to film a timelapse video featuring the ponies in beautiful landscapes for EQD's annual Ponies Around the World event.
I love sharing these adventures with people, especially helping others find new and exciting adventures. I love helping provide recommendations for good hikes–especially those around Mount Adams, the Gifford Pinchot National Forest, and the greater Washington state area.
