Tonight’s lecture will present a program about the 50 plus constructed trails within the Rio Grande Gorge. Who made them, how and why, along with stories and photos from 47 years of exploring the canyon.
Del has spent a lifetime exploring the wilds by foot, ski, and boat. He has floated over 30,000 river miles, including over 20 years as a commercial guide and co-owner of Los Rios River Runners. Growing up in the woods less than a mile from Walden Pond, then living on the edge of the mind-boggling sprawl of Southern California, he understands the importance of land conservation. With a degree in anthropology and Latin American history, he has worked as an archaeologist for the Carson National Forest and a River Ranger for the Bureau of Land Management. He has also served on the Boards of Taos Search and Rescue and the Albuquerque Mountain Rescue Council. Photographer, Archeologist, Park Ranger, story teller and adventurer on land and water,
