Amy Gulick and Salmon In the Trees
For two years, photographer Amy Gulick trekked among bears and bald eagles, and across forests and salmon-packed streams to document Alaska’s Tongass National Forest in its natural, primeval state, for her book Salmon In the Trees. The most complete portion of remaining west coast temperate rainforest, the Tongass is the largest National Forest in the U.S., and the only National Forest to have been “excused” from Roadless Rule regulations.
The Beating Heart of the Mojave Desert
If passed, the California Desert Protection Act will protect over one million acres of the Mojave Desert’s last wild areas, with the creation of two new National Monuments: the Mojave Trails National Monument on former railroad lands adjoining historic U.S. Rt. 66, and the Sand to Snow National Monument, which would include areas from the desert floor of the Coachella Valley to the high country of the San Bernardino Mountains.
