National Parks Conservation Association Grand Canyon Report

Post by Al_HikesAZ »

I'm really excited. :y: The National Parks Conservation Association used eighteen of my Grand Canyon photos in their August 2010 Report on the Status of the Grand Canyon. You can view their work (and my work) here: http://www.npca.org/stateoftheparks/grand_canyon/

The cover photo is from a backpacking trip with Eric (Morel) down Nankoweap. My daughter thinks it's funny that my little orange poop shovel made it into the report :sl: TMI? :o

All of these photos were on HAZ before I became famous. :)
Eric took one of the photos, but he is letting me take credit for it. And his sister Erin was my photomodel.
The Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition is still on my bucket list. ;)

Thanks. Brad Dimock is the third Kolb Brother. I'm the seventh son ;) It was a thrill to work with Brad recreating some of the Kolb Brother photos for the Cline Library collection. Brad would find the spots where photos had been shot and we would pose for him to shoot us. Brad is also the third Powell brother - Brad portrayed Powell's brother Walter in the National Geographic movie about the Powell expedition and did all of his own stunts.

Are you Rich Rudow's friend Ram?
