New #introduction: my name is Scott and I'm from #Chicago. I identify as #trans, #nonbinary, and #agender. I don't have a strong relationship with pronouns and I tell people to use ones that will confuse the least amount of people in the room. I also practice #polyamory and try to avoid relationship hierarchy. I'm an #SRE and #DevOps engineer by trade. Most of my work today involves #kubernetes. Other tags I'm into: #hamradio #boardgames #backpacking #boating #camping #motorcycle #lgbtq

Glacier Peak Backpacking: Day 1 The first photo is the view from near my camp on Cloudy Pass. Today has been incredible but tough. Hiked 20 miles with 6400’ elevation gain. This is not like the PCT, it’s rough trails that go straight up for hours. But i’m so happy, I wanted an epic long weekend and Glacier Peak Wilderness is providing that in spades so far. #Backpacking #PNW #WashingtonState #Photography #Hiking #Walking #Nature #Outdoors #Mountains #Landscape #LandscapePhotography

Timberline Trail Backpacking: Day 1 Hiking the Timberline Trail this weekend, which circumnavigates Mount Hood. Currently hiking CCW from Timberline Lodge to Elk Cove. Knocking out about half of the mileage today to relax the next two days. I slipped in Newton Creek and soaked my right foot. Having a great time though, so good to be back out in the wilderness! #Backpacking #PNW #Oregon #Photography #Hiking #Walking #Nature #Outdoors #Mountains #Landscape #LandscapePhotography #Sunrise

Alpine Lakes PCT Backpacking: Day 1 Exploring a beautiful section of the PCT this weekend. Alpine lakes all around with many views of Mount Rainier. Really glad I made the long drive up here. Just saw a man hiking barefoot with a walking stick. A few mosquitoes but my permethrin treated clothes are working really well so far. #Backpacking #PNW #Washington #Photography #Hiking #Walking #Nature #Outdoors #Landscape #LandscapePhotography #Mountains

S. Washington PCT Backpacking: Day 3 Look at this view of Mount Hood! Absolutely gorgeous. I’m sitting on the edge of a cliff on Table Mountain across the Columbia River in Washington State. #Backpacking #PNW #Washington #Oregon #Photography #Hiking #Walking #Nature #Outdoors

S. Washington PCT Backpacking: Day 3 Woke up to something chewing a hole in the leather of my boots. This isn’t the AT, we don’t have mice I don’t think. I have a feeling it was something larger. What could it possibly be? Heading up the West Table Mountain trail. Clear skies so far. 🤞🏼 #Backpacking #PNW #Oregon #Photography #Hiking #Walking #Nature #Outdoors

View of Mount Jefferson while standing on the Timberline Trail on Mount Hood. I took this photo in September 2022 while backpacking the Timberline Trail. #ThrowbackThursday #PNW #Oregon #photography #hiking #nature #outdoors #camping #backpacking

I suppose I should do an #introduction. Hello! I live in #Chicago and do #DevOps work (mostly #kubernetes). People generally use he/him pronouns for me, but I have no real preference. My nerdy hobbies include #hamradio, #3Dprinting, #boardgames, and perfecting my #hometheater. My less-nerdy hobbies include #camping, #backpacking, riding my #motorcycle, and #boating.
