SUMMARY:Water is Power with L&J Ranch
DESCRIPTION:Part of the Gila River Festival. \nLocation: Seedboat Center for the Arts\, 214 West Yankie Street \nThe Gila River Project investigates one of America’s most expansive ecosystems. Named as America’s most endangered river in 2019\, it persists despite the severe threats of climate change\, the demands of ranching\, agriculture and mining\, and the impacts of recreational and residential development. Exploratory expeditions took place via an Airstream trailer that served as a mobile laboratory/studio. Location-based research considered the politics\, history\, culture\, and resource management in 9 regions along the river\, from its origin in the Gila Wilderness to its junction with the Colorado River. A custom designed medallion was installed at significant site-specific locations that represented the focus in each region. The Gila River Project aspires to illuminate the relationships that define what can be referred to as ‘eco-plasticity\,’ the inherent characteristics that enable continuous change in response to physical\, cultural\, and biologic elements. \nThe L&J Ranch is an art + research venture that explores the relationship between ‘place’ and the life it enables. Joel Slayton is an artist with expertise using media technology to explore complex systems and networks. Lisa Johanson is a clinical research scientist studying motor control and neural plasticity. Through their collaboration\, Joel and Lisa are developing a series of artworks that probe the relationship between land-use and sense-of-place.

SUMMARY:Wild Gila River Family-Friendly Hike
DESCRIPTION:Part of this year’s Gila River Festival.  Register now; space is limited. \nParticipant limit: 25. Fee: Free\, however registration required.\nDifficulty: easy\nMeet at the Murray Ryan Visitor Center at 211 N. Hudson St. at 9:45 am. From there we will carpool and caravan to the Gila River Bird Sanctuary Trail\, about a 40 minute drive one way that requires some driving on a well graded-dirt road suitable for any vehicle.  \nJoin us on this family-friendly hike with Luke Koenig along the Gila River upstream of the Gila Middle Box\, a reach proposed for federal designation as a Wild and Scenic River. The Gila River is a special place: not only is it the last remaining undammed\, mainstem river in New Mexico\, but along its banks is found the most representative cottonwood forest\, or bosque\, left in the southwest. Cottonwood trees\, dependent on naturally flooding desert rivers\, are the foundation for much of the rest of the desert riparian ecosystem\, providing shade and stabilizing the riverbank. Countless native plants and animals depend on their presence. Come hike and play under the canopy of this amazing forest and along the free-flowing river that gives it life. This is an easy\, mostly flat\, hike suitable for all ages. \nThe hike is approximately 1.5 miles roundtrip. We will hike slowly and as a group to a beautiful riverside turnaround point\, and stop for lunch. After lunch\, we will hike back to the parking lot\, and expect to be back in Silver City by around 2pm. This hike is free and a free lunch will also be provided to all participants with registration. Please bring plenty of water\, a small backpack or bag to hold your water and free lunch\, sunglasses\, hat\, sunscreen and appropriate footwear.

SUMMARY:Weather & Climate in the Gila Wilderness
DESCRIPTION:Part of this year’s Gila River Festival.  Register now; space is limited. \nParticipant Limit: 16\, Fee: $30\nDifficulty level: moderate\nMeet at the Murray Ryan Visitor Center at 211 N. Hudson St. Silver City at 10 am to carpool to the Mogollon Box Day Use Area.  \nParticipants in this field trip will learn from Dylan Duvergé about historical weather patterns and runoff on the Gila River and its watershed\, as well as how climate change is expected to impact the magnitude\, frequency\, and nature of flow along the Gila. Drawing on information from the New Mexico Bureau of Geology & Mineral Resources Bulletin 164 (Climate Change in New Mexico Over the Next 50 Years: Impacts on Water Resources) and The Nature Conservancy’s past and ongoing work on the Gila (e.g.\, Gila River Flow Needs Assessment)\, this field trip will involve a guided hike to the U.S. Geological Survey Stream Gage upstream of the Mogollon Box Day Use Area. On this hike\, we will discuss all things water: how water flows are monitored\, how shallow groundwater along the Gila River is being studied\, and how climate change may impact the Gila River in the next 50 – 100 years. Plan on a beautiful 3.6-mile round-trip hike. Please bring bring sunscreen\, a sun hat\, plenty of water\, lunch and snacks.
