A circular logo for “Seasons of Jason” featuring a stylized hiker with trekking poles walking beside a mountain range. Below the hiker and mountains is a bold “S O J” with a leaf and snowflake integrated into the lettering. The full name “Seasons of Jason” appears beneath the abbreviation. A winding white trail leads from the bottom of the circle upward toward the horizon, symbolizing a journey. The color palette consists of earthy autumn tones — primarily browns and reds — evoking a retro national park aesthetic.
