W. C. McRae

W.C. McRae has been exploring Utah for several decades each time getting farther off the road and digging deeper into the landscape. Every trip has a different focus whether it's hiking into a new and more remote canyon fixating on ancient rock art or going deluxe at guest ranches. Bill has written for Frommer's Lonely Planet and Mobile Guides and has contributed to 1000 Places to See Before You Die. He has also edited books for National Geographic and provided content for websites such as GORP.com and Expedia.com. When not fixing up his old house in Astoria Oregon Bill has a day job as a high-tech marketing writer.

While visiting Goosenecks State Park Judy Jewell realized that like the river below she might be an example of entrenched meandering. Perhaps so...her work on the Moon guides to Utah Montana and Oregon has taken her to both the popular destinations and the remote areas in these states. In Utah there's nothing she likes better than tromping through a dry wash in search of rock art or an old granary. When she's at home in Portland Oregon Judy works as a technical and scientific editor and a yoga teacher.
