I wanted to give a brief update. James Parton is alive and well, I heard from him the other day. He sent me a post about poke salad/ aka pokeberry the other day. he says he is not gone and has some chestnut posts forthcoming. Roman Dial had been travelling on an extended world tour through Australia and Africa among others. I had been following his journey on Facebook. But he closed his account and dropped off the radar for awhile. He has been doing more pack rafting than canopy research lately he says. I sent him Don Bertolette's email up there in Alaska. maybe we will have another Alaskan WNTS person. He has a new video on YouTube on Hiking in to Alaska's Honolulu Creek and pack rafting down. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yu-j_DD-3hg There is a series of his videos on YouTube. He has a new book out: ( http://www.amazon.com/PACKRAFTING-Introduction-How-Guide-Roman/dp/0974818836/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1247259372&sr=1-1 ) entitled: PACKRAFTING!
