Scott Robertson

Volcanic landscape researcher, field photographer, and national park road guide author

B.S. Earth Sciences from University of Arizona • Lead Author and Research Director at DoubleDeckerPress Creative • 15 years in Geological Tourism and Volcanic Landscape Research

Scott's interest in volcanoes began on a road trip through the Cascades in his early twenties, when a detour to Mount St. Helens changed his understanding of what a landscape could communicate. Since then, he has made it his work to help other people read volcanic terrain the way experienced researchers do.

What I Write About

Featured Writing

My Approach

"The best guide is one you can use with one hand while the other is on a trekking pole."

Every article and guide Scott writes is built from field notes first. He visits every site he covers, takes his own photographs, and tests every route against real conditions before publishing any recommendations.

Currently Working On

A revised edition of the Hawaii Volcanoes road guide incorporating new Chain of Craters access routes and updated USGS lava flow data.
