Utah’s Capitol Reef and Dirty Devil Canyon
Photos by Stephen Matera
It’s time to look for the sun. Time when many of us look to other locales for our backpacking adventures. Here are some images and activities to inspire you.
Stephen Matera is headed to Utah’s canyons, a great place to catch sun when we are a little short here in Seattle.
Matera is a Seattle local and professional photographer who has been actively capturing the outdoors for 15 years. He has shot for outdoor brands like Sierra Designs, Jansport, Cloudveil, and Cascades Designs and his photography has graced the pages of Outdoor Photographer, Backpacker, Runner’s World, and Trail Runner magazines.
Matera’s landscape images emphasize strong composition and show a mature understanding of light.
He holds travel workshops in amazing locations including the Utah desert in and around Capitol Reef as well as the Pacific Northwest.
Steve will be leading a 3-day workshop in Utah’s Capitol Reef from October 25 to 27, and he will lead a backpacking photo workshop of Dirty Devil Canyon from October 30 to November 1. Details, cost and more info can be found on this page of his website. We’re certainly inspired.
