If you get the chance please cast a vote for it in the people’s choice award (link in bio) it’ll take 2 minutes which is 29998 less minutes than it took Rodney to make this riverboat.

Moments from adventures outside over the past few years. 🍃 It feels harder to share things of substance here so I’ve decided to start a Substack newsletter. I’ll be sharing photos and stories about what I’m up to, where I’ve been, what’s inspiring me etc. Link to subscribe (for free) in my stories. Link 🔗
