Today, I speak with NOLS
Instructor Mark Hamlin, from small-town Indiana and living in
Lander, WY, full time for the past decade. He completed a NOLS
student course in 1987, mountaineering in the North Cascades of
Washington state and led his first backcountry trip at the age of

Mark took his NOLS Mountain Instructor Course in 1990 and led his
first course in the Absorkas mountain range of Wyoming in 1991.
Over the years, he has worked predominantly whitewater canoeing,
backpacking, and sea kayaking course compiling over 250 weeks in
the field.
Mark's most recent NOLS course was a San Juan river canoeing Alumni
trip in May 2021. Currently, he is a stay-at-home Dad and part-time
tortillero/owner at Tortillas del Chico Blanco, Lander's first and
only home-based tortilleria.
