I get plenty of spam emails on the InterMtnHistories account, but this one is just plain weird.
What is going on here?
Wrong answers only.
Inaugural hammock #MountainOffice of the season to finish off the pile of awards and funding application judging and ranking. The local avian population doesnβt seem to be thrilled about my presence though. π€·ββοΈ
Petroglyphs, fossils, Alta Springs, & the behemoth north end of the Cascade Mtn massif with its warped layers and banding last night with Ben Abbott. I still regularly have to remind myself how lucky we are to have this just a few minutes from home. π Thanks for the pics Ben.
Thanks to Michel Brickey for taking the time for this generous review in the Winter 2024 Western American Literature on my lasted edited volume, 'The North American West in the Twenty-First Century' (@UnivNebPress, 2022).

The plight of the whales of the Great Salt Lake. This is amazing in every way possible. Folklorists do such fun work. Thanks KUER's RadioWest!

Public History friends! I'll be at #NCPHUHS2024 Friday and Saturday in SLC (teaching and meetings I can't miss Thursday). Drop me a message if you want to connect for a meal.
No matter what alternate activities youβre choosing between, opting to spend time with Jane Hafen Dr. P. Jane Hafen is ALWAYS the correct choice. My trust in her may be 2nd only to my PhD advisor John Wunder (who, incidentally, introduced me to her).
I know I always say that my Writing Westward Podcast episodes could have gone on forever, but this one REALLY could have. There was just too much to cover that Lyndsie Bourgon and I barely scratched the surface of all the things I wanted to dig into. Enjoy!
