My dad died a little over a week ago.

I've been looking through old photographs since then, and one thing that keeps appearing is Dad outside — hiking, fishing, kayaking, traveling, taking photographs and simply spending time in wild places.

He loved being outdoors, and that was something he passed on to me. I've spent much of my own life hiking, climbing, paddling, photographing and paying attention to the natural world.

I don't think I fully understood how much of that began with him until now.

Thanks, Dad.

"For the benefit and enjoyment of the people."

Those words above the entrance to Yellowstone have been there for more than a century. Looking through photographs from years of hiking, climbing, paddling and traveling, I'm reminded how much of my life has been spent on public lands.

My dad shared his love of the outdoors with me. Amy and I have continued to build our own lives around many of these places, and over time the natural world also became central to my work as an artist.

This week I'm delivering work to The Confluence: Art In Twisp for *This Land is Our Land*, an exhibition celebrating public lands and the wild places we all share.

These places have given me far more than recreation. They've shaped how I see the world and what I value. I want future generations to have the same opportunity.
