Braveheart, a Native American (Iroquois/Tuscarora) visiting from Columbus, Ohio, explains, “As a Native American I feel a deep connection to Shasta County because of the land’s history and cultural significance to the Wintu, Patwin, Nomlaki and other native people. I strive always in my landscape photography to honor those ancestors, who have come before by sharing with others the beauty of the land upon which those ancestors lived, cared for, and made possible for future generations.” The Turtle Bay Visitor Center Theater is located at 840 Sundial Bridge Drive, in Redding. For more information, please call the Whiskeytown Visitor Center at 246-1225, or stop by 14412 Kennedy Memorial Drive, daily during the hours of 10:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. To follow Rick's blog and view work from his current residency at Whiskeytown, please visit his website at http://www.thegreatamericanlandscape.com -NPS-
