Two trips down the 40 Mile River 20 years apart
Nov. 08, 2018
Jules is member of the Hillside Rotary Club and a Paul Harris Fellow. He often introduces himself as a "recovering bureaucrat" because of his previous federal and state jobs or as "Mr. Peg" in recognition of his wife's work in Alaskan conservation issues. He has 3 daughters, 2 living in Anchorage and 1 in Tucson.
Jules has presented slide talks to Rotary on his several safaris to Kenya, Pribilofs, Yellowstone in Winter, Southwestern US in Spring, Copper Canyon in Mexico, and the Galapagos Islands. His presentation this week is his two trips down the 40 Mile River twenty years apart.
Relocating from Washington DC for a 2-year detail to lead Wild River Studies in 1972, Jules changed jobs to stay in Alaska where he has worked on a number of Alaskan projects with the objective of doing it right.
Photography is one of Jules' passions honed by work with the Department of the Interior for 30 years and for the State of Alaska during the Hickel and Knowles administrations where he worked on a variety of projects ranging from water resource management to TAPS and several gas pipeline permitting from the Slope to foreign and domestic markets, to mining, to identification and prospective recreation areas and pending federal acquisition of in-holdings in national parks, forests, and refuges.
