Everything you wanted to know about being a Ranger

Ever wondered how a park ranger knows all the names of every flower or animal in their park? Ever wondered why some rangers where baseball caps, while others wear the famed flat hat? Ever wondered what advice rangers really give visitors on what to do when confronted with a bear on the trail?

The following is a talk on some of the fun, adventure, crazy questions and wacky adventures I got into over my five seasons as a ranger. It also provides my behind the scenes, never before shared insight into what rangers really do and think.

Enjoy!

President Obama and all Rangers share something in common

President Obama and all park rangers share something else in common.

We've all lived in National Parks.

As the President notes in this video, the White House is a national park. I've got the President beat on this matter, as I've lived in three parks: Glacier, the North Cascades, and Yellowstone.

Like the President, my time living in national parks underlined to me that these places belong to all Americans including those yet unborn.

National Parks are the physical manifestation of what Americans hold dear. However, they are even more, they provide a path forward to a better world.

America faces significant challenges. However, I've seen the power of national parks to break down barriers and reveal the common ground we all share. Sharing common ground and understanding is the first step in a conversation which can lead to real and lasting change.

As the President reminds us, it will take all of us to protect our parks and planet. But in the end, it shouldn't be that difficult, because by protecting our parks, we are really protecting ourselves.

Why I work to protect national parks!

Here's a short video I did a few years back which like my Ted Talk from last year, encapsulates why I work to protect national parks. 

Like many of you, I'm sure national parks are more than pretty place, or sites where history changing events took place. Why they resonate so much for so many people I believe is likely do to the fact that they are places where personal stories were written, places where memories were made. 

As I state in this video national parks are like the scrapbook of many of my fondest experiences. I'm sure its the same for many of you as well.
