C. William "Bill" Steele
Bill Steele recently retired as a national-level director for the Boy Scouts of America, based at their national HQ in Texas where he was in charge of Alumni Relations and the National Eagle Scout Association. He is now a writer, speaker and near full time explorer. Bill is a Speleologist of international standing having led or participated in expeditions to many of the longest and deepest caves in many states of the USA, Mexico, and China.
As a 13 year old Boy Scout in 1963 Bill got the taste of original exploration and from that moment he was "bitten by the bug" and hasn't slowed down since, 50 years later. Bill was profiled as one of 120 contemporary explorers in the 2009 book "Adventurous Dreams, Adventurous Lives". He is well published in journals and newsletters, as well as having written two books popular with cavers: "Yochib: The River Cave", and "Huautla: Thirty Years in One of the World's Deepest Caves.

I was blown away. Just astonishing what you've managed to accomplish. I believe that you've understood, intrinsically, a concept that many people have a hard time grasping--which is to follow that which gives you passion..
