Bruce Boccard
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Bruce R. Boccard was an American wildlife biologist and environmentalist.
He created the Soda Mountain Wilderness Council to press Congress to protect it, but never lived to see it, dying at age 34 on July 9, 1987.
In May 1988 a rock point jutting up 5,720 feet above sea level a little over a mile southwest of Soda Mountain, was dedicated by friends and family and officially named after him Boccard Point[1][2]
