ASSIGNMENT: OCEAN WILDERNESS

I'm headed offshore—and off the grid—into the Gulf of California, aka the Sea of Cortez, through late April, helping out with some field research and working on a new Mother Jones piece.

Please browse the archives until I return with new images and stories. 

And please email me links to any interesting ocean news/developments, so I can catch up when I get back: julia.whitty@gmail.com.


Here's where I'll be after meandering a while by boat. Some of you recognize the landmarks and seamarks for tiny Isla Rasa.
