California, United States
"Respect the land and its inhabitants--everything else will follow." Follow me on Bsky @gregorreis I am a watershed restoration ecologist who has worked to improve California water management for 30 years. This blog is a personal blog that contains my opinions only and not necessarily those of my employers. I am an explorer. A wilderness travel expert. A dad. I lived in Lee Vining for 16 years, and installed Mono County's first solar-electric grid intertie on the house in front of the post office. I am a former firefighter/EMT, and a 6th-generation Californian.
