Well folks, it's official. Sierra Journal has arrived. Today the expansive editorial and photography staff has been recognized by Wend Magazine. Our photo "Mount Dana Reflection" (below), was chosen as the winner of this week's Friday Photo Contest.

So many people to thank. I'd like to thank the Academy. My friends and family. The dude at the camera shop who helped me pick out my new DSLR. The guys at the taco truck across the street. 

Plus, I get some swag to go with it. A brand spanking new Klean Kanteen Classic. Thanks Wend!
