At Pathloom, we're extremely proud of the exclusive content we bring to our community each and every week.

"The Presidential Budget for fiscal year 2022 was submitted to Congress in late May, and includes a $3.5 billion investment in the country’s National Parks in anticipation of one of the busiest years in the history of the Service as a result of the pandemic. This represents a $700 million increase over last year’s budget, a good indication of the importance assigned by the new administration toward the preservation of the country’s natural beauty and resources."

"But let’s not sugarcoat what I was actually feeling at the time  — I was terrified. To be quite frank, I was fairly unfit at the time, and I had never signed myself up for a hike as grueling as Half Dome."

"Eight of these mountains exceed 4,000 feet in elevation (extremely tall by New England standards), and five of them represent the tallest in New England. The weather in the White Mountains can be extremely unpredictable, and Mount Washington, the tallest, is renown for having the 'worst weather in America'"

"These sunsets reflect off of the sandstone relics of the park and bring those colors to life with such vivid tones it’s enough to question reality, lost in the striking beauty that is the Front Range. With the setting of the sun - Colorful Colorado is in full bloom at the Paint Mines."

"I was starting to feel the effects of the altitude at this point. My hands were swollen, my fingers cold, my whole body was shaking, and I had no appetite at all due to bloating and nausea."
