ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Harry Lewellyn, AKA the Silver Coyote, has roamed he unpaved terrain since age 13, when in 1952 he helped his father with their desert homestead near Victorville. He produced the California OHV Guidebook for the California Department of Parks and Recreation and publishes the 4-Wheeling newsletter "Ecological 4-Wheeling Adventures." He has been featured in newspapers and magazines, appeared on radio and TV, teaches at 26 colleges, and trains law enforcement and rescue personnel about safe and proper use of 4WD vehicles. He has come full circle from professional motorcycle and off-road racer to the new bread of "clean and easy" unpaved traveler. He leads 4WD tours throughout the southwestern United States, Baja and the uncharted depths of Barrancas Del Cobre (Copper Canyon), Mexico.
