About the Author
Jenna Blough grew up on the edge of the beautiful Blue Ridge Mountains, where she was allowed to run wild, instilling a love of the outdoors early on. After her parents dragged her and her sister on a cross-country road trip of epic proportions, she developed an equal appreciation for Wild West roadside attractions, historic sites, and wilderness.

Jenna eventually found the California desert to be her geographic soul mate. She is also the author of Moon Joshua Tree & Palm Springs and Moon Death Valley National Park.

Jenna received an undergraduate degree in cultural anthropology, an MA in English literature, and an MFA in writing. She resides in Los Angeles with her husband Ryan Jones.

Kayla Anderson is a freelance writer based in Northern California. She grew up in Redding, graduated with a degree in journalism from California State University-Chico, and now lives in North Lake Tahoe. For the last 20 years, she has been writing about people, places, and products all around The Golden State and beyond.

She regularly contributes to Enjoy Northern California Living magazine, Sierra Nevada Ally, Tahoe Quarterly, and Tahoe magazine; and is continually impressed by what she discovers in the places she loves. You can find her work at www.kaylaanderson.org.
