Welcome and thank you for visiting Images In The Backcountry!

My name is Mike Matenkosky and I'm a local Awater California nature photographer specializing in landscape and wildlife photography. You can find me wheeling around in my wheelchair in and around the Central Valley of California and especially Yosemite National Park, Merced National Wildlife Refuge (NWR) and San Luis NWR.

If you are looking for something you don't see here, or have any questions, feel free to contact me and I'll be happy to help you.
