Brad Allen

A Washington State native, Brad Allen grew up hiking, hunting, fishing, and camping in the Cascade Mountains. Brad is an engineer, artist, writer, and poet. In addition to his writings, he produced a film directed by his son Zach titled Dreams in the Wilderness: stories from the Middle Fork. It is available on DVD through Amazon.

Brad's love for wild places is evident in his writings, his video productions, and his blog, www.clearlyperceived.wordpress.com.

It was in the Middle Fork of Snoqualmie Valley that Brad brought his passion, faith, and family together. There is a magic in the giant old growth trees, deep valleys, steep hillside, and incredible presence of water there.
