William R Cherry

Nothing defines William more than a dedication to family and a love of wild places. After university, he lived on the North Pacific coast. His aptitude for navigating deep woodlands led him to becoming a lead consultant to forestry. His explorations there provided him many encounters with animals featured in his book Hinterland Vignettes.

On stormy days when wind gusts confined his crew to camp he created the logic puzzle

DEKRYPTUAN, that many describe as a forerunner of the universally popular game of Wordle.

William currently lives near Vancouver, never far from his second home, the BC bush.
