Events
On Friday, September 27, 2024 I will be presenting at the Escalante Canyons Art Festival in Escalante, Utah. The theme will be "Before There Were Roads: the Adventures of Dave Rust," based on my book Dave Rust: A Life in the Canyons. The program will begin at 7:00 p.m. in the Escalante High School auditorium. If you're in the area, please join me and also have a look at the wonderful art exhibits on display at the town park during the day.
Please contact me if your group would like to host an online presentation about Utah's national park history or another topic from my books.
