Friday, March 3: Craig Childs - The Way Out

Desert Ecologist and Author Craig Childs
Desert Ecologist and Author Craig Childs

By Doug Fabrizio

Salt Lake City, UT – Doug Fabrizio talks to Craig Childs about his book The Way Out: A True Story of Survival. For years, Childs has walked the spare, most forbidding terrain on the planet. "Between jobs," he writes, "I survive by drinking from water holes in the far country, mapping canyons and routes for my own curiosity." His book is the story of an extreme journey with a friend -- a life or death challenge to explore some of the world's most unforgiving land, and to find their way out. (Repeat)

  • Author Craig Childs will be in Ogden Friday, March 3, 2006, at the Timbermine Restaurant. He is speaking at the Weber Pathways Third Annual Fundraiser. The event begins at 5:30 p.m., and tickets are available by calling Weber Pathways at 801-393-2304.
