A fledgling paper for the introduction of Palmyra Atoll to the general public. This photo journal / paper is brought to you by Michael E. Murray, a freelance writer who worked on the pristine atoll on behalf of The Nature Conservancy based out of Honolulu, HI.

Watch for a rate schedule in future up dates to this site. In an effort to make this site navigable and "fun" to view, I've tried to create an Easter Egg Hunt with the links. Thanks to Dennis, I took over 4500 pictures while on the atoll that I will share with you on this site. Many of the pictures have "pop ups" associated with them for larger image viewing. Watch for the updates and stories! What happened to Matt & Liz Lang?
One of our projects was to tear down the old bath house that was built for the fishing business that started on Palmyra prior to TNC's arrival. We salvaged what we could, then let Dennis G. have at it. Dennis has sailed the Pacific Ocean but never had much experience with equipment operation. This was his opportunity to run the controls of the Cat and gain that time while on Palmyra. Dennis role was Station Manager for the winter rotation 07 / 08.
