Bio: I document public lands on horseback, mostly in Nevada but I border hop around the west. Writer, historian, journalist, former military. Desert witch.
The horrors persist, but so do we.

Happy birthday to Red Rock, which became a National Conservation Area on this day in 1990. The first in Nevada! Millions of people visit these iconic mountains outside Las Vegas each year.

Roughly 86% of Nevada is #publicland. I have ridden thousands of miles across and around it but I feel as though I have only begun to understand it.
