New on the blog: A little story about a pre-pandem

New on the blog: A little story about a pre-pandemic travel SNAFU in #Alaska, and some ideas for how to visit now, featuring @uncruise – one of my favorite sustainable travel companies that I’m looking forward to adventuring with! (They’re offering COVID-vaccinated and -tested trips this summer & fall that are pretty tempting. Plus waiving the single supplement for solo travelers, FYI.) Lots more Alaska photos on the blog! (Link in my bio.) Also in the post, shout-outs to other local Juneau businesses who added some spice to my visit there, including @resolute_ak (eco-focused boutique) and @amalgadistillery (🔥 cocktails)! Who has summer or fall travel plans? Or are you still in wait-and-see mode?

GIVEAWAY! 1 pair (any size, any style) of eco-frie

GIVEAWAY! 1 pair (any size, any style) of eco-friendly, washable, reusable, comfortable PERIOD UNDERWEAR from @shethinx ! I’ve never done this before, but I’m an ambassador for @shethinx , and they offered to send me a free pair. But I don’t need another pair right now – so I thought I’d give them away instead! These are one of my favorite sustainable products: Comfortable, high-quality underwear that absorb your menstrual flow. That means: Nothing to buy every month. Nothing to throw away. Nothing single-use. No waste. Nothing uncomfortable. IT’S A REVELATION. (They also make a line for teens called BTWN, and a line for bladder leaks called SPEAX. If you win the giveaway, you’re welcome to choose ANY STYLE on their site.) HOW TO ENTER: Just comment below that you want to enter + follow @TiltedMap (me) by SATURDAY @ 12 NOON EST. BONUS ENTRIES if you tag 1, 2, 3, or 10 friends who might be interested in this (or in #sustainability and travel in general, since I'm not 100% about underwear!), and bribe them to follow me. I’ll choose a winner out of a hat, and if you win I’ll need your address + style/color/size by Sunday, and your #Thinx will ship next week. PS: You can also order a pair through my ambassador page & save $10 on every single order –– shethinx.com/tiltedmap 💰 (link in my bio @tiltedmap) Questions welcome! PPS: I think I’m supposed to mention that this #giveaway is not affiliated with Instagram. #EndPeriodPlastic #BreakFreeFromPlastic #ReuseRevolution

Q: How do I square being a sustainable travel blog

Q: How do I square being a sustainable travel blogger + driving around the country in a vehicle that gets less than a dozen miles a gallon? (To translate that to EU km/L = not even street legal.) A: It's old. That’s not a perfect answer, but it’s the truth! Taking good care of the old stuff we already have is almost always the most sustainable option. When you can’t do that, buying better makes a huge difference. If you read my blog, you know I’m a little obsessed with that idea, and I’m huge believer in supporting businesses that are making a legitimate, consistent effort to do things better. They’re out there. You can find them by looking for brands that: ✔️ Are B Corps @bcorpuscan @bcorporation
✔️ Offset their carbon emissions with certifications like @beclimateneutral , @myclimate and many others
✔️ Use plastic-free packaging
✔️ Are members of 1% For The Planet @1percentftp
✔️ Make high-quality products that won’t turn into more trash anytime soon Other tips welcome! #BCorp

Rock cairns are always like a guilty pleasure for

Rock cairns are always like a guilty pleasure for me. I know we’re not supposed to make them just randomly for decoration – they’re supposed to be used to mark something. 📍 (Now, usually a trail, but they’re still sometimes used for monuments and grave markers in some places.) But they just look so good. Why is that? What is it that’s so visually appealing about a pile of rocks?
So I love finding trails that are genuinely marked by cairns, like this beauty in Utah’s Canyonlands National Park. (Tip: Head for the desert. In Montana, most trails are clearly marked by being The Only Space Without Trees, so no cairns needed.) #LeaveNoTrace #RecreateResponsibly
