Great American Smoke-Out
Everybody knows the benefits of quitting
smoking and just how hard it can be. The
National Cancer Society urges us every year
to join the Great American Smoke-Out and
just quit! Even if you’ve tried lots of other
ways and had setbacks, consider hypnosis:
a gentle and non-invasive method to break
the habit. Hypnosis makes the subconscious
level of mind accessible and can help you
to quit. Hypnotherapist
Drake Eastburn
has
been helping people quit for more than 20
years. Wishing that one could quit is not
the same thing as being truly committed
to doing so, and the best guarantee of
success is always an honest commitment to
personal betterment. Hypnosis can help.

Celebrating 100 Years of Colorado’s National Parks &
Monuments
Rivers, Ruins, & Mountains
This year, 2016, is the 100th anniversary of
America’s National Park Service. Colorado’s
preeminent nature photographer, John Fielder,
has photographed the state’s most sublime
federal lands for over 40 years. In this original
presentation, he guides us on foot and boat
through its national parks and monuments.
By raft you will negotiate thousand-foot deep
canyons of the Colorado, Yampa, Green,
Arkansas, and Gunnison Rivers. On foot you
will step inside the cliff dwellings and castles
of early Native Americans. And with backpack
and tent, you will visit the most remote parts of the granddaddy of mountain parks,
Rocky Mountain. Enjoy John’s commentary about his life in the wilderness, the challenges
and techniques of wilderness photography, and beautiful music behind the images.
Included in the slide show are John’s iconic repeat photos of W.H. Jackson’s nineteenth-
century Colorado images.
John Fielder
has worked tirelessly to promote the protection
of Colorado’s ranches, open space, and wildlands during his 34-year career as a nature
photographer and publisher. His photography has influenced people and legislation, earning
him recognition including the Sierra Club’s Ansel Adams Award in 1993 and, in 2011, the
Aldo Leopold Foundation’s first achievement award given to an individual. Following his
presentation and workshop, John will sell and sign his new book Wildflowers of Colorado
and all of his popular Colorado books.
