At Outdoor Retailer this week in Salt Lake City? Make sure you schedule time for the Conservation Alliance Breakfast. We're happy to welcome writer Craig Childs, with his presentation The Secret Knowledge of Water. Childs has been steeped in water issues, recently returning from Patagonia where he took part in the Rios Libres initiative, documenting the adventure and beauty of the Rio Baker, scheduled to be dammed in 2013.
"To understand a place, you need to drink from its many waters," wrote Childs during last year's expedition to Patagonia.
