Bill Cook?

Did a BLM DAC tour this past Friday of Isham and Surprise

I recorded the trip via GPS and reviewed where we visited via Google

My question is who is Bill Cook who posted all the cool pictures on Google?

I like the 70s era yellow Chevy blazer in the pictures also

Hi Wayne.
I know a few people that may know him.
Is this just curiocity, or do you need more info ?


On the Friday tour, I got a play by play on the the Isham portion. How'd the Surprise portion go ?
How far up did they go ?
What was talked about ?

Just a curiosity thing, There are about a dozen pictures tagged on Google Earth
posted by Bill Cook. I would assume they were taken quite a few years ago.

We hiked about a mile and a half up Surprise. I had never been there. Its
pretty overgrown and amazing there was once a road there.

There was some optimism Saturday at the DAC meeting about doing EIR work
to open it. BLM and Parks have something cooking together. But there was some
enviro interests on the tour who seemed very pleased its closed to vehicles.

Thanks for the info
Wayne
