About this picture
We started off full of energy on our backpacking trip. Dasha the labrador bursting with excitement, running up and down the trail. We hiked up and down and up and down the huge rolling green coastal mountains that are iconic to central California. We trekked through thick forests and crossed icy rivers that were waist deep. Dasha was no longer dancing, she was chugging and I had to take the weight off her dog-pack and carry it in mine.
A couple hours before sunset, we found a perfect spot by the water to set up camp. Together we spent the rest of the afternoon chilling with the trees.

More Tips on Big Sur from Travelers
Big Sur
- I took this shot while on a 3 day road trip with some friends through California’s Big Sur. On the last day I decided to get up a little earlier everyone and go exploring. I found this wonderful little creek in a small forest off of Highway 1 and thought it would be perfect for some aerial photography. These days I never travel anywhere without my drone. Being able to shoot from any angle, at any height, from any distance has been the single biggest game changer in all my years taking photos.
