My sincere apologies for the lapse in getting my recent pictures and videos posted. It takes considerable time to create and manage blog posts on my phone and even more time compiling and uploading videos to YouTube. In the interest of catching up- and wanting to hike out early in the morning- I’m going to keep the narrative to a minimum,  post some recent pictures with captions and call it good.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The last time I posted I was near the Montana border with North Dakota and since then have crossed all of North Dakota, Minnesota and am now in Wisconsin. Lots of great anecdotes but unfortunately no time right now to write them up. We’ll have to make do with the pictures. Thanks so much for following along and I’ll try to keep up to prevent such long delays in the future. With love and best wishes for a great conclusion to your summer, Max (Michael)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
