Intimate glimpses of Big Bend National Park over the years

"For All Seasons" is wonderful complement to a journey to Big Bend for any nature lover. Through reading Ro Wauer's book, I got a clear understanding of what a park naturalist's work entails. The work is a paradoxical blend of solo time hiking in the mountains, inventorying plant and animal species, along with leading tourists on nature walks around the campground. It was on one of the latter that the famous "poodle story" took place - more I will not say. "For All Seasons" works equally well as a preparation for a trip to Big Bend, reading while at the park, or a companion to reminisce with on return. Wauer knows both the heavily visited and nearly inaccessible corners of the park, and makes you his companion on his journey.
