Edward Abbey Lecture

Leader: 
Zack Baker
Date: 
Tue, 2014-04-22

Jack Loeffler, a bioregional aural historian, will talk about the author and environmental advocate Edward Abbey and his legacy at 5:30 p.m. April 22 at the Bradbury Science Museum. The talk is the fourth in a series of evening lectures planned this year at the museum, and is free and open to the public.

 

Many of the Mountaineers are quite into Abbey, so I thought it might be relevant to the membership.   See you there!

Join Zack and friends on the annual run to Santa Fe.   We'll start at the Blue Dot trail, running down the trail then up to Buckman road.  We'll zip lock anything you are fond of, put shoes in garbage bag, and swim across the Rio Grande, then continue up Buckman road to the railyard/REI for lunch.   It's about 20 miles.   The water will be very cold, the road will be very hot.   You'll mostly be responsible for your own ride back, but there may be some carpool space.    Email me at zackbaker@gmail.com
