Hello, first post
Hi, i stumbled upon this website when i was looking for info on Kelly Point, Parashant NM, as i'm hoping to make a trip out there soon.
Just reading through some of the threads, i found them to be really interesting and up my alley so i decided to join.
As my username suggests, i am a ranger at Grand Canyon National Park -North Rim. And i have many desert miles on my tires and hiking boots, so i hope i can contribute some knowledge from all of my experiences.
3 things i love most- the southwest, photography, & talking about it combined right here!
Some photos from the North Rim i made last season.
more stuff- http://www.pbase.com/jake_mcfee/root&page=all
Thanks

Re: Hello, first post
Welcome Ranger Jake,
And - WOW! On the pictures. They could be postcards. I like the second one, with the people standing on the left - gives some real perspective on the area. (something that is difficult).
I hope you enjoy the forum, and, since you ARE a Ranger, you may be able to contribute to some of our discussions from another point of view.
Looking forward to your future posts - and pictures!

Beautiful photos Ranger Jake. I always imagined a park ranger with a talent for photography would have the most amazing shots, looking forward to more.
Like the Everett Ruess avatar as well.
