I can’t believe this has so little views! I’ve been getting into reading Katie Lee’s books and it’s great to hear stories directly from Tad himself and others that are so important to the American west’s history and river running! Thank you Lew!

What a gem of a human.

I'm pretty sure he passed away in the fall of 2000.

Tad Nichols was born in Ohio, in 1911... When did he die?

[@naiadelviscovo4398]

he lived til the 2000, he's a sweet man and the best great grandfather. his photography has been passed down. his adventurous heart as well. his wife passed a few years or so after. his grand daughter continues his passions
