...Two weekends ago my wife and I did a one-night pack-in
with our horse, mule, and burro into the Mimbres River
in the Aldo Leopold Wilderness Area....

How comes it to be known the "Aldo Leopold Wilderness Area"?

I've spent a good deal of time in his beloved sand counties (actually lived
there for a while)......used to know a couple of his students......and their
students (not bragging.....just sharing).....don't remember any connection
with your part of the world.
