We just opened nominations for the 2025 National Outdoor Book Awards (NOBA). The program recognizes outstanding outdoor writing and publishing. Entry forms and eligibility requirements are available on the NOBA web site: www.noba-web.org/policy.htm (The painting is Thomas Cole's 1836 "The Oxbow")

The Oxbow (1836). This is one of Thomas Cole's famous outdoor paintings. In this highly symbolic painting, Cole looks down from a wilderness to an oxbow in a river valley below. Our view, from above, is just behind one of Cole's favorite forms: a windswept and battered tree.
