Explore 02 / Commonwealth Basin Snowshoe
We ventured to Commonwealth Basin Snowshoe about a month ago to do some snowshoeing. Hiking through the snow is really pretty (and a lot more work!). At the top we discovered an abandoned igloo made by some boys who had camped the night before. It was possibly the coolest thing I’ve stumbled into while hiking.
With today’s trail logo I am using a couple typefaces from Lost Type. Have you used their fonts? They’re all really beautiful and unique and most impressively: free! Of course if you use the fonts and like them, it would be nice to support the artists with a donation! -Holly

I’m pleased to announce a new project called Explore. I try to go hiking throughout the year as well as other miscellaneous outdoor activities and decided it would be fun to document all the trails I venture to. The creative part you ask? It’s simple, I will create a logo for every hike I take, nothing fancy just something fun. I used to do a project on my old site, called “White Type” where I would explore new typefaces on imagery and this feels like a natural progression for the project. I hope you enjoy my adventures, small or grand as they may be! -Holly
