PRESS RELEASE: Special Zoom Event Sponsored by the University of Utah’s Go Learn program.
This presentation will take you through many of the world’s greatest mountain ranges and explores the ways that human beings have related to these landscapes throughout history. These are enduring stories of meaning and purpose, of people’s aspirations and their sense of what is sacred. Jonathan Duncan has spent over twenty years exploring and documenting the world’s high and wild places. His journeys have taken him throughout the Himalayas, to the Patagonian Andes, the Alaska Range, Antarctica, and the Buddhist mountains of China. Jonathan serves as the adjunct professor of Adventure Media & Photography at Westminster College, and teaches courses on the Sacred Mountains of the World and the Himalayan Geography through the Osher Institute at the University of Utah. He recently released a new photographic ebook—The Spirit of High Places.
