The Art Box - Episode 262 - An Adventurous and Giving Life - Meet Chris Gorzalski

Chris stopped by the Mesquite Works STEAM Center recording studio on her way to an evening of dark sky gazing at Gold Butte National Monument. Both Chris and Steve are Volunteer Wilderness Stewards for the Bureau of Land Management in Washington County, Utah. But Chris's story doesn't end there—she is so much more.

In her professional career, Chris worked as a Neonatal Nurse, devoting her life to the care of infants and their families. Now retired, she channels her energy into her passion for public lands, spending much of her time volunteering or embarking on extraordinary canyoneering and backpacking adventures with her son, Jeremy.

Grab your headphones and get ready to join a lively conversation among friends, diving into tales of wilderness adventures, Toyota 4Runners, the possibilities of new hips, 514 climbs, carnivorous rocks, avoiding the call of the void, life as a nurse, and all the incredible experiences waiting in our surrounding public lands.
