Author Biography
Richard A. Light is an instructor of backpacking, rock climbing, and other outdoor skills. He has been backpacking, climbing, hiking, skiing, and generally active in the outdoors for more than 50 years. He especially loves telemark skiing, rock climbing, backpacking, canyoneering, snowshoeing, building igloos, and reveling in the beauty and majesty of nature.

He has been designing and leading multiday backpacks in remote areas of the Grand Canyon since 1993.
