Operation Javelina

Operation Javelina
Author: Noah West
I received word in 2019 that the military was sending me to Fort Huachuca, Arizona.

AFI Priority Landscape Camp

AFI Priority Landscape Camp
Author: Charles J. Squires
Bouncing down a barren stretch of the Dalton Highway, known to Alaskans as the Haul Road, a bang and a thud emanating from the engine compartment of our van signaled that our hunting adventure was far from over.

Following introductory greetings we piled into a rented van, ...
