Hate too call him out but just can't keep it to myself.
Mr.Jared de Rivendell. Is the man!
You talk about adventures. Every time I get to talk to him he's always coming back from some amazing adventure.

He's posting photos and his last couple of trips look amazing and romantic. 

Like a Rivendell Bike Cowboy. 

Seriously his shots are amazing. 


Bookmark and look and be inspired to ride. 
Just don't envy. Get out there and make your own adventures. Then take amazing pictures.

Could we be talking "Tejas" and the Buena Suerte Cinnabar Mercury Mine Ghost Town?  One way or the other, it appears Jared knows how to run an adventure.  I like the "starry night" shots and bonfires.  I am honored to have had his support for my Sam Hillborne purchase.

Thanks for outing him as an adventurer.

The ever clueless Tom asks "What is 'DV'"?  Death Valley?

Thanks,

Tom

Yep, or one of the lesser valleys in DVNP perhaps Panamint or Eureka.

Dear Hugh,

In his time, Colin Fletcher made an impression on me with his "1000 Mile Summer" that has stayed with me from my teens to my present age.  The Panamints are featured as are many things.  The book inspired a wilderness ethic that is a part of my life (along with "Complete Walker" and his other works).  Off topic for Rivsters, but I am sentimental about it.

Take care, good friend,

Tom

I'm pretty sure the 1st series of photos are in Mexico.  The last section looks like the central coast of Cali.

I like the pic of Poppi's pizza.

I going to guess that at least one of the pics is outside of Marfa, TX at Donald Judd's concrete installation.

Like CJ mentioned, he has a sweet instragram feed called ultraromance: http://instagram.com/ultraromance
