Scott Patterson and Outlaw in Backpacker Mag!
Well, the subject tells it all
There is an article about Scott Patterson and Outlaw Arch in this month's Backpacker magazine.
Congrats Scott!!!Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, as vital to our lives and water and good bread

even though i have issues with backpacker magazine and stopped looking at it in 1997
i'd agree that the recognition in such a high-profile mag is pretty cool
well done

May be a copyright issue, but I do wish someone would scan the piece and post it here.

And FWIW: the short piece was written by a friend of Scott's, so I'm guessing that Scott might be able to get him to post it here without any copyright infringements? Copyright often remains with the author.

What's weird is they took my article and Jeff's trip report and according to Jeff: The short article they put in the magazine is a hybrid of my trip report, your article on the discovery etc. all woven into a first person narrative...kinda weird how they did that
http://www.summitpost.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=28497
Also weird is that they emailed me asking if they could use my photos and said they were using Jeff's trip report. I didn't know the article was already in Backpacker until someone started a post on it on Summitpost.
Unfortunately, I can't buy the magazine in town so haven't read it. I'll have to buy it when passing through Grand Junction next week. Dang, they should have sent me a free copy.
Anyway, National Geographic Adventure contacted me after seeing the info on Summitpost and NABS. Supposedly they are putting something in the July ot August issue about the arch (they are doing an article on arches in general), but not sure how much. Not sure how much will be in there about this specific arch, though they did ask me a lot of questions. The article is on arches in general and on the Natural Bridge and Arch Society.

This is my article for Summitpost:

Though I haven't read the story in Backpacker, it sounds like the info was a combination of the two above, written in first person form.Utah is a very special and unique place. There is no where else like it on earth. Please take care of it and keep the remaining wild areas in pristine condition. The world will be a better place if you do.

Good Job! You are right! The least they could have done is to mail you a magazine! I bet if you called them they would.

Very cool. I just got back from a week long business trip, and I saw the latest Backpacker issue in the mail pile. Looking forward to reading it.
