His work has appeared in a wide array of print and online publications, including: the New York Times' LifeWire, Time Out New York, Weather.com's Forecast Earth, AMC Outdoors, Explore, Big Sky Journal, Crawdaddy!, Popmatters, Offshore, and the Maine Times, and he has twice won awards for history writing from the International Regional Magazine Association.A Registered Maine Guide, Andrew Vietze had a tree fort in a tall old pine during his childhood and used to walk from one to the next in the forest canopy twenty feet above the ground. He spends half the year working as a seasonal ranger in Baxter State Park, stationed at an old sporting camp called Twin Pines.
