Fancy an outdoor adventure ... in Iraq?

There is a new mountain ski resort (and spa!) at Korek Mountain near Soran & Rawanduz in Kurdistan, northern Iraq.

Also Secret Compass has a trip coming up on Halgurd Mountain this spring ...

and then of course there is our friend Andreas Bleiker and his eco-tourism company operating out of Erbil: Majestic Heights Outdoor Adventures.  He has plenty of adventures!

... and if you want to also contribute to a good cause and get a hiking/birding/rafting and/or kayaking trip out of the deal, check out the Rawanduz River Expedition Campaign.

Those of you State-side, I'll be giving two talks this coming week: on to the students of the Environmental Problem Solving class at McDaniel College (my father used to be the librarian there back in the day).  The other talk will be for an Estuaries course at the U.S. Naval Academy.
