Join Oregon Wild board member, and renowned author William Sullivan on a journey to Oregon's most treasured landscapes through a multimedia presentation.
RSVP for this free event here.
Space is limited and reservations are required.
Join William L. Sullivan, the newest Oregon Wild Board Member and Oregon's bestselling outdoor author, as he takes us on a slide show tour of the state's most beautiful Wilderness Areas -- including areas recently designated by Congress. From Mt. Hood to the Wallowas, from the Oregon Dunes to Steens Mountain, expect tips for summer backpacking, winter tours, and day hikes amidst Oregon's most spectacular scenery, based on Sullivan's "Atlas of Oregon Wilderness." As always, 
Sullivan spices his talk with notes on the geology, wildlife, and history of the land. A book sale and signing will follow the lecture.
Sullivan is the author of a dozen books about Oregon, including "Oregon Trips & Trails," "Oregon 's Greatest Natural Disasters," "Hiking Oregon's History," and the popular “100 Hikes” series. His journal of a 1000-mile hike he took across Oregon in 1985, “Listening for Coyote,” was chosen by the Oregon Cultural Heritage Commission as one of Oregon’s “100 Books,” the 100 most significant books in the state’s history. He has also written a memoir and two novels.
Proceeds support the efforts of Oregon Wild to protect and preserve Oregon's wildlands, wildlife, and waters.
