Description
Summary:In this interview, Buzz Belknap talks about growing up with an adventurous family (Fran, Bill, Buzz, Loie) in the Boulder City, Nevada area and boating with many of the southwest river runners of the day. He recounts his enthusiasm for outdoor recreation: from hiking, boating, guiding river trips, learning to fly and traveling to the Antarctic. Buzz also recalls the many -out of the ordinary opportunities- his father provided for him and their joint effort in creating a waterproof Colorado River guidebook which has been the primary Colorado River boatman resource on most river trips since it was first published in 1969.
