A Soul Gypsy is someone who follows their passion against all odds. A path is set before each person that is too often forgotten as we are pushed to conform. The experiences we have had on this path leave us no choice but to turn this dream into our life and strive to participate in the world to the greatest extent possible. We have chosen to sacrifice comfort and security for what we truly love. The Soul Gypsy is not in search of some goal that is attainable in the future – our quest is just to live the dream for one more day. Read more

Every time I set out to explore a new wilderness area I’m reminded of the fact that only 2.5 percent of the contiguous United States is still wilderness. At just over 100,000 acres, Mokelumne Wilderness, south of Lake Tahoe, is a small but spectacular fraction of what remains.

In the heat of the Reno summer, there’s no better way to cool off than jump in the water. If dealing with the crowds of Tahoe or the often drunken hooligans floating the Truckee River has gotten old, try a different approach: hiking to get away from the crowds. Hunter Creek falls offers a perfect opportunity to cool off with a spot all to yourself. Read more
