Russ C.

Russ has been an important resource for this site almost since the beginning.  If you've been to more than one event or were a participant in the old forum,  you already know Russ (Recon).  Having lived in Las Vegas for many decades,  there aren't many local trails or mines Russ hasn't visited.  Always knowledgeable with history and integral with group event preparation,  Russ can always be counted on as a solid contributor.

Guest Writer / Contributor Series

I've never presented myself as an expert on history or geology.  In fact, over the years I've mentioned quite a few times that my knowledge of such things is elementary at best.  Some of you may have noticed that I often go out of my way to not present our exploration as lessons, but rather,  as our observations.


Through our group  events, we've met many with knowledge bases far greater and deeper than our own.  This section is an opportunity for those wanting to add their own experiences to the site.  Any contribution, whether written accounts,  image galleries, or a combination of both are appreciated.  Feel free to submit ideas for inclusion.
