Program . He has served as the President of the Association for Chemoreception Sciences, Chair of National Institutes of Health Study Sections and recently completed a term on the Advisory Council for the National Institute of Deafness and Other Communicative Disorders . Throughout his career he has been fortunate to receive very generous support from the National Institutes of Health for his research and the postdoctoral fellows and graduate students working in his lab . Though they have made progress, Greer and his colleagues continue to explore the fundamental cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate the initial organization of the nervous system during embryogenesis and its capacity for plasticity in the adult . Professor Greer entered UCCS, then better known as Cragmor, during the fall term of 1966 . At the time, there were only about 500 enrolled students . Most of the faculty were drawn from colleges and universities in the area on a part-time basis and many of the classrooms and hallways still had the medical equipment from Cragmor’s former life as a tuberculosis sanitarium . Like many of his peers, Dr . Greer held a full-time job while taking evening classes . He received his B A. in December, 1971 but stayed on as a teaching assistant in the Department of Psychology, under the leadership of Dr . David Nichols, until he entered graduate school in Boulder in 1973 . He earned his Ph D. in Biopsychology (Neuroscience) and Behavioral Genetics in 1978 . Dr . Greer and his wife, Sandra, moved to Yale where he began postdoctoral studies on the development and organization of sensory systems . Since 1985, Professor Greer has been a UCCS donor, contributing to the David Nichols Scholarship Endowment, which provides support to Psychology majors, and to the Kraemer Family Library . Dr . Greer has organized several national and international conferences and is frequently an invited speaker . He is an Associate Editor of The Journal of Comparative Neurology and Journal of Neuroscience and a member of the editorial boards of Frontiers in Neurogenomics, Frontiers in Neuroanatomy and Frontiers in Neuorgenesis and the Faculty of 1000 .

EB: A couple weeks into the Fall 2020 semester, Covid-19 precautions caused NC State to put all classes online. This switch caused a lot of change in the lives of NC State students, forcing them to step out of their typical day-to-day routines in favor of something different. Abby Hepp ‘23 took this as an opportunity to go on the adventure of a lifetime-hiking, camping, and climbing her way across the United States! Today, we sit down with her to talk about her cross-country road trip, along with advice and NC State resources that students can use to get outside and craft their own adventures. EB: Okay, so today we are sitting down with Abby Hepp. Abby, would you like to introduce yourself to the podcast? Abby Hepp: Hi my name is Abby Hepp, I am majoring in Communication Media at NC State and I'm currently a sophomore. EB: Awesome! So we're going to get right into it! Today we're going to be talking about some of your adventures that you've been going on in the past few years and using to inspire other people as well, so let's start with- how did you become involved in outdoor activities and adventuring initially?

  • Spanish Peaks Wilderness
    Mt. Bierstadt Field Trip Trip date: 6/17/2006 Ralph Swain, USFS R2 Wilderness Program Manager Observations: 1). The parking lot was nearly full (approximately 35 + vehicles) at 8:00 am on a Saturday morning. I observed better-than-average compliance with the dog on leash regulation. Perhaps this was due to my Forest Service truck being at the entrance to the parking lot and the two green Forest Service trucks (Dan and Tom) in the lot! 2). District Ranger Dan Lovato informed us of the District’s intent to only allow 40 vehicles in the lower parking lot. Additional vehicles will have to drive to the upper parking lot. This was new information for me and I’m currently checking in with Steve Priest of the South Platte Ranger District to learn more about the parking situation at Mt. Bierstadt. 3). I observed users of all types and abilities hiking the 14er. Some runners, 14 parties with dogs (of which 10 were in compliance with the dog-leash regulation), and a new- born baby being carried to the top by mom and dad (that’s a first for me)! Management Issues: 1). Capacity issue: I counted 107 people on the hike, including our group of 14 people. The main issue for Mt. Bierstadt, being a 14er hike in a congressionally designated wilderness, is a social issue of how many people are appropriate? Thinking back to Dr. Cordell’s opening Forum discuss on demographic trends and the growth coming to the west, including front-range Denver, the use on Mt.

  • Fourteeners Use Estimates: Methods
    Fourteeners Use Estimates: Methods Data Sources Two data sources were used in conjunction to reach the hiking/climbing use estimates reported above: the Colorado Fourteeners Initiative’s 2015 Sustainable Trails Program counters and the 14ers.com 14er Checklist Statistics. Sustainable Trails Counters Beginning in 2014, the Colorado Fourteeners Initiative (CFI) has been accumulating data on peak use by placing TRAFx infrared sensors on 14er summit routes. The placement of each counter is carefully chosen to provide the best possible data on 14er use. Where possible counters are placed above all trail intersections or turn-offs to additional major attractions in order to only count hikers and climbers intending to summit. Counters are concealed in cairns or in tree foliage to avoid impacting users’ experiences and lessen the risk of tampering. In most cases the counters are set up as early as possible in late spring/early summer and are taken down mid-fall before they become buried by serious snowpack. While winter use of the occurs, the number of skiers and mountaineers may be reasonably assumed to be very small in comparison to the number of climbers and hikers who access the peaks in the summer and fall. In addition, the ecological impacts of humans moving over snow and ice are orders of magnitude smaller than those of people hiking over delicate alpine flora. For these reasons CFI’s fourteener use estimates focus primarily on the summer and fall spanning from May to October/November. In 2015, seven peaks (counting Grays/Torreys and Redcloud/Sunshine each as one route) had Sustainable Trails counters monitoring their use: Grays/Torreys, Handies Peak, Mount Elbert, Mount Democrat, Quandary Peak, Castle Peak, and Redcloud/Sunshine.

    CLEVELAND (CLEVE) MCCARTY. Born 1933. TRANSCRIPT of OH 1336V A-B. This interview was recorded on June 8, 2005, for the Maria Rogers Oral History Program. The interviewer is Robyn Crispe. The interview is also available in video format, filmed by Liz McCutcheon. The interview was transcribed by Catherine Jopling and Carol Jordan. NOTE: The interviewer’s questions and comments appear in parentheses. Added material appears in brackets. ABSTRACT: Cleveland McCarty, a pioneer in rock climbing and co-author of High Over Boulder, talks about his love for climbing (both rock climbing and mountaineering) since his boyhood days in Boulder. He shares stories of some of his more memorable climbs along the Front Range and elsewhere. [A]. 00:00 (This is Robyn Crispe. I’m interviewing for the Maria Rogers Oral History Program of the Carnegie Branch Library for Local History. The date is Wednesday, June 8, 2005. The narrator is Cleveland McCarty, and we’re at his home at 315 Arapahoe in Boulder, Colorado.) (So, thank you for having this interview with us, and I’ll start by asking when and where were you born.) I’m a native, born in Denver, Colorado, and when—1933. (When did you move to Boulder?—What brought you here?) I went to school here, so that would’ve been in the ‘50s—‘53 or so. And then I went in the Air Force. I went to dental school in St. Louis at Washington University and then the Air Force, and back to Denver for a year, and finally in ‘66 bought a home here, started a practice.
