Author talks and bird walks, mining tall tales and geology deep dives, local history and desert mystery … whatever you like, we’ve likely got it!
We’re proud of our unique area and colorful history, and educating visitors is a big part of our mission. To that end, the Shoshone Museum hosts a variety of scheduled talks and events, running from autumn through spring (generally October to April). All events are live and in-person; regrettably, we aren’t able to record or stream our talks at this time.
Talks are always free – and donations are always appreciated!
Andy will entertain us with talk about the Springs of the Shoshone and Tecopa region (essentially the Amargosa Basin.) Answering questions like where does this water come from? How old is the water? What is in my well? Andy will present a photographic and videographic tour of the springs in our region, including our understanding of the sourcing and ages of the water.
Also, with some encouragement we may get him talking about his books Desert Summits and Hiking Mojave Peaks! He is a multi talented guy, Hydrologist and Hiker extraordinaire!
