| Itinerary: |
| Business meeting; break; followed by a presentation: 'Icefield Bunnies, Gullible Bees and Why the Biggest Mountain in the Rockies is Not the Highest' - Ben Gadd on the Quirky Natural History of the Canadian Rocky Mountains.
Rockhounds, flower-fanciers, wildlife-watchers and bird nuts take note: this is a light-hearted, thought-provoking 45-minute talk about the Rocky Mountains by by Ben Gadd, author of the classic 'Handbook of the Canadian Rockies.' From little-known facts about grizzly bears and half-grabens to the amazing relationship between the calypso orchid and the northern golden bumblebee, be prepared for an eye-opening presentation. Bring your questions, too.
Recent books by Ben Gadd include Canadian Rockies Geology Road Tours - The Complete Roadside Guide; and The Canadian Hiker's & Backpacker's Handbook.
Ben will bring copies of his books to sell (personally inscribed) after the show. |
