DISQUS

Kolby, this is great! I love the amount of detail (in sketches and words) that you give. I've been keeping a hiking journal this year, and my entries tend to be rambling with not much detail. Although, I DO print out a few of my photos when I get home and put them in the journal so that I have visual triggers, too. Thanks for posting this about your journal. Once again, you've inspired me!

When you're an old man, these will be amazingly priceless. Especially since your great grandkids will marvel at "paper" and "handwriting"--which I'm sure will be odd and mysterious to them! I was a little intrigued when you pulled this out of your pocket on #46--it's nice to have a little peek inside. Thanks for sharing!

Kolby, that is a great piece of work. I have journals I keep from most of my trips, they are great to look back at 5, 10 years later. I could only wish mine were as in depth as yours are! I love the drawings. It gives me something to aim for in mine!

Wow!
I am a hiker and a journal keeper (Moleskine) for many years. I stepped up my hiking to a higher level and down by 67 pounds since November 09. Your journals are going to make me take a nother look at how I keep my daily logs. I am on facebook you can check my hikes and Moleskine albums in my Photo albums. Would like to keep the dialogue for having the same interests.

This kind of reminds me of the journals I've seen for Lewis and Clarke, John James Audubon, and Charles Darwin.

What an inspiration. I only wish I had kept a journal when I was actively hiking. I never had your drawing talent though.
