The Great Basin Institute, under which lies my organization the Nevada Conservation Corps, is also in charge of the Nevada Visitor Use Monitoring program, which has employees conduct exit surveys at public land sites. When they offered the crews of the NCC a chance to be one of those employees, I signed on, both from an interest and experience perspective, but also of course for some extra cash.

My first trip out on Sunday was at Ash Meadows South, about 22 miles west of Pahrump and within five miles of California. The sun was shining, wind was calm, and it reached about 50 degrees, so I actually interviewed about 14, with about 10 agreeing to be interviewed. Sweet!

Each interview setup is a 6-hour day, so I had plenty of time to unwind and recharge while out there. Took some photos too:
