Research Interests
My research interests focus on the historical and cultural geography of
the Rocky Mountain West. Recent projects include a book of
rephotography focused on Montana's cultural landscape.
Colorado has been another setting for several projects that center
around the process of human landscape evolution in the West. I also
coauthor two textbooks on world regional geography.
