I’ve been told I’m a little strange. I love the outdoors, rock climbing, hiking, backpacking, biking, running, climbing trees, laying in hammocks, playing music, writing music, and movies. I’d call myself a dreamer. I aspire to continue working in the outdoor industry for a long time (I currently work at a gear shop). Maybe a tech rep, maybe an outdoor guide. I’m a dreamer, I’m easily distracted, and I’m going to get a cup of tea…Tumblr (3.0; @frencanada91)http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/978cc1017d2eec360ac1e960647d40ac/tumblr_mmx2tf7CgI1qewqbro1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>My setup right now.

One of the lightest 3-layer alpine shells on the market! Recently re-introduced in to the Patagonia line with some revisions.

A style of life that doesn&#8217;t worry about chasing money, women, or superficial things. A life in the outdoors. A way to relieve stress. To forget my troubles. A way to make friends. Challenging my body and mind. Scaring the shit out of myself. Falling. Trying again. Falling. A way to express myself. Obsession. Aspirations for the future. Big things to do. Devotion. Traveling. Getting lost. </p>http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/47760261469http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/47760261469Fri, 12 Apr 2013 00:29:15 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/107b5ff53657184852d616d0d1953b39/tumblr_mgn5edcKYF1s34tlbo1_500.gif"/><br/><br/><p>I’m back in to the swing of climbing training crossed with basketball for cardio.</p> <p>BOOM BA BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM!</p>http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40584349734http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40584349734Tue, 15 Jan 2013 00:47:42 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/bc6ca62b822c3fffb1834ca4c7430a6f/tumblr_mgjs42r4xo1s34tlbo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40409001645http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40409001645Sun, 13 Jan 2013 01:48:30 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/5fc1b9403f2a8086a6efbc96e08f907c/tumblr_mgju7cBVJ71qkpppjo1_500.png"/><br/><br/>http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40408988876http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40408988876Sun, 13 Jan 2013 01:48:17 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/d53b7c6fae0a8aef107985668b881131/tumblr_mgjwnhW4YS1rkiy6bo1_400.gif"/><br/><br/>http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40408980360http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40408980360Sun, 13 Jan 2013 01:48:08 -0500<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/4bc5354ead3747e324069542803d8399/tumblr_mgivvahD4A1qewqbro1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>:)</p>http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40346404782http://frencanada91.tumblr.com/post/40346404782Sat, 12 Jan 2013 12:13:57 -0500<img src="http://24.media.tumblr.com/530539a747cc0106d4ce142066dbcde0/tumblr_metwtxbelb1qh91cmo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a class="tumblr_blog" href="http://jonnyetc.tumblr.com/post/37650406266/wake-up-albuquerque-its-time-for-new-mexicos">jonnyetc</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>Wake Up Albuquerque!
