A Word From Bryon Dorr
Travel, adventure, photography, and quality gear are all extreme passions of mine. As an automotive and outdoor journalist, I’m able to share those passions and pursue them around the globe.
I chased water and snow around the globe pursuing whitewater kayaking and skiing/snowboarding for the past 2 decades, photographing my adventures and the best athletes on the planet in the process. That led me to live on the road for nearly 8 years full-time, where I combined my interest and photo/writing skills into a career reviewing gear and sharing adventures.
My personal interests include whitewater kayaking, mountain biking, adventure motorcycling, performance driving, overland travel, trail running, skiing, snowboarding, photography, wind sports, and rock climbing.
You can keep up with my life of adventure on your favorite social media @ExplorElements.
