"We have so many humans on this planet... As we have a stronger and bigger desire to connect with natural places, we need to be careful that we are doing so in a way that is respectful of the other animals that live here."
Stephanie Williams, professional mountain guide and independent field biologist, is the project’s co-founder and manager. Steph earned an undergraduate degree in Biological Science while working as a research assistant in chemical and landscape ecology at Boise State University. She also trained in alpine, rock, and ski guiding with the American Mountain Guides Association. Steph loves exploratory skiing and climbing, particularly in remote terrain, and especially with her husband, Drew Lovell. The Gulo is a perennial source of inspiration.
Photographer, wildlife tracker, field biologist, and co-founder David Moskowitz spearheads the photography for the project and its interface with Conservation Northwest’s ongoing citizen science efforts in the region. David has produced film and authored three books: Caribou Rainforest, Wildlife of the Pacific Northwest, and Wolves in the Land of Salmon. He enjoys long mountain runs, alpine climbing, and backcountry skiing.For more information about their project, visit http://cascadeswolverineproject.org
