The Dirt and DustAuthor: Alex Handloff
There are innumerable stories hidden in the landscape of southern Colorado and northern New Mexico, tucked away behind Ponderosa Pine trees, bubbling up in cascading streams, soaring above verdant valleys. Who are the people? What is this place? How can we ensure a better future for us and our surroundings?The Dirt and Dust explores these questions along with the personalities, places, and peculiarities of the 2 Watersheds - 3 Rivers - 2 States Cohesive Strategy Partnership (2-3-2) landscape which works collaboratively, bringing together government agencies, tribal partners, non-profits, community members, and more to make decisions collectively about our forests, rivers, wildlife, and communities.

Thursday, 17 October, 2024
Aldo Leopold once lived in a cabin in New Mexico near Tres Piedras. His time there left an impression, not so much for what he did while he lived there – he was only at the cabin for around 9 months – but for who he would become. His legacy has persisted over time, manifesting itself in the quaint and rustic cabin, reaching out to those who stay there, and especially to the person who maintains the cabin, Richard Rubin, a retired medical doctor who now writes his own books, creating his own legacy that's intertwined with Leopold's.In this episode, Thinking Like a Mountain, we talk with Richard Rubin about his life, his time taking care of Aldo Leopold's old cabin, and the sense of stewardship it all inspires.A special thanks to Richard Rubin.
