The image depicts a vibrant camping scene in a serene woodland setting. A bright yellow tent stands out prominently, pitched neatly among rocks and lush green mosses. Towering evergreen trees surround the campsite, their slender trunks extending upwards into a hazy, atmospheric sky awash with warm hues of orange and purple, indicative of a picturesque sunset or sunrise. Small details like a backpack, camping gear, and a water bottle scattered around the tent contribute to the authentic wilderness ambiance.

It was only a few weeks ago that I was standing by an alpine lake, 10.5 mi into the Central Oregon backcountry, looking back at where we set up camp as it was illuminated by the setting sun✨ It was a moment of calm simplicity, and now, just a few short weeks later, this area we camped in is on the edge of two massive fires, and nearly 900,000 acres have burned in Oregon. This is more area than wildfires have burned in the past 10 years combined, and countless families are being, or have been evacuated... It’s a devastating loss for all who have already been affected and will continue to be affected... 😔 Stay safe, check in on your loved ones, and please do whatever you can to support each other⛺️
