Welcome! I am Dave Alonzo, creator of Dave's Outdoor Excursions. I created this website to share my adventures with you, and also encourage others to get outside to see what they have been missing. Most of my free time is spent hiking, backpacking, camping, or fishing. Over the last few years I have camped in several places throughout the Western U.S., fished many rivers and Lakes in Oregon, and covered thousands of miles of trail in Oregon, Washington, California, Arizona, and Montana.
During this time I have learned a lot about the outdoors through personal experience or research. I don't pretend to have all of the answers, because when it comes to Mother Nature, nobody does. Important wilderness knowledge that I know and continue to learn will be shared with you so you that you can survive if you end up getting stranded in the wild.
When I am not in the outdoors I am usually at school. I am a Physical Education teacher in Southern Oregon, and a high school football and wrestling coach. Because of my work, most of my outdoor excursions take place in the Spring and Summer.

*Please note, this website is not even close to being finished. It is a work in progress. I still have many excursion to add, as well as outdoor tips, and other information. Please visit frequently to check out my progress.
