For our second installment of People of the Parks, we sit down with Andrea Lankford to discuss her career in the NPS in units including The Grand Canyon and Yosemite, her celebrated literary works such as Ranger Confidential and her astonishing outdoor accomplishments. We chat about what it is like being a woman in the outdoors and how to be safe. An avid believer in outdoor exploration, Andrea is an advocate of solo ventures for all.
