All good hikes must come to an end, and in this case, I’ve made it back to my car sweaty, exhilarated, and craving something greasy. Today is my last day at @waDNR, and I can't help but look back with gratitude (and a little bewilderment tbh)
Words to live by if you love wildlife - if you care, leave it there.
Does distance in fact make the heart grow fonder? Yes it does. To love seals is to stay away from them.
I am saddened to learn of the recent passing of @NYSDEC Ranger Robbi Mecus. Robbi was esteemed for her skill in numerous rescues in the Adirondacks and her role in the establishment of the LGBTQ ice climbing community. adirondackexplorer.org/stories/adiron…
Today on @ncpr, we remember Robbi Mecus, a @NYSDEC forest ranger in the ADKs, an avid climber, and a trans woman who advocated for the LGBTQ+ community. She was also a remarkably kind and caring person. I'm lucky to have met and helped tell her story. northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/430…
DU and @NYSDEC completed a wetland enhancement project at Lakeview Wildlife Management Area (WMA). Northern pike, black terns, black ducks and other wildlife will benefit from this public-land conservation work. @DUConserve ducks.org/newsroom/lakev…
I was honored to recently collaborate with her for @NYSDEC observation of Trans Day of Visibility, where her guidance and contributions were instrumental. She is a true leader and inspiration and will be sorely missed.
Heartbroken over this sudden & tragic loss. I grieve along with the rest of team DEC and the community Ranger Mecus cultivated in the Adirondacks and beyond.
Robbi Mecus, a New York State forest ranger who led search-and-rescue missions and became a prominent voice within the LGBTQ climbing community, died after falling about 1,000 feet from a peak at Denali National Park and Preserve in Alaska. She was 52. nyti.ms/4bcM25W
It felt very important to spend time out in the Adirondacks today, a place that Forest Ranger Robbi Mecus loved so deeply and worked tirelessly to serve. Robbi told me in 2021 that she “instantly fell in love,” with the ADKs on her first trip here decades ago.
Hear Robbi’s story from 2021 of becoming a forest ranger and coming out as a trans woman tomorrow on @ncpr.
Deeply saddened by the news of Forest Ranger Robbi Mecus's death. She left a mark on everyone she met, including me. She was open and vulnerable with me as I worked on telling her story for @ncpr and @NPR in 2021. And was a valuable source ever since. northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/430…
@EmilyRussellADK @AP Thank you @EmilyRussellADK for trying to get this fixed and for all of your stories about Ranger Robbi Mecus, esp. this one northcountrypublicradio.org/news/story/430…
@AP You’ve misgendered Robbi Mecus in this story. She uses she/her pronouns and was a trans woman. apnews.com/article/alaska…
