[pct-l] Ansel Adams!

[Stephen Adams]

He was an OK writer.  He had a lot of help with that book.  I also recommend the biographies.  All are good.  One nice thing about the autobiography is one will see some different types of images.   Just good stuff, and if you don't like to read all that much the PBS DVD special on Ansel Adams is quite good and worth a look see.

To my surprise, glued into the back is a list of the directors and advisors to the Pacific Crest Trail Conference (precursor to the PCTA). Scanning down the names one jumped out! Ansel Adams was one of the earliest drivers and inspirations for the formation of this trail!!  I either don't ever remember knowing this (very likely) or, I hadn't ever heard of this.
