Fort Caspar Museum is hosting a presentation with wildlife biologist and author Erik Molvar on Thursday, November 18th at 12:00 noon.

Molvar’s new book, Wyoming’s Red Desert Landscapes: A Photographic Journey, features photography from a dozen of the region’s most talented photographers. Excerpts from historical journals of pioneers and explorers, along with cowboy poetry and essays from local uminaries and characters, are paired with the photographs. The presentation is free with museum admission ($1.50 for adults); and there is no charge for Fort Caspar Museum Association members.

Prominent Red Desert landscapes will be featured, such as Adobe Town, the Jack Morrow Hills, and the Killpecker Dunes, as well as wildlife and cultural features of the area. Join Molvar for a photographic tour of some of the Red Desert’s wildest and most spectacular landscapes. Books will be available for purchase and signing.

Erik Molvar directs the Biodiversity Conservation Alliance in Laramie, WY. He holds a Bachelor of Science degree in Wildlife Biology from the University of Montana and a Master of Science degree in Wildlife Management from the University of Alaska, Fairbanks.
