After moving west, he explored, mapped, and photographed caves in the Southwest, Mexico, Central America, and Borneo. Dick will focus on Lechuguilla Cave, in Carlsbad Caverns National Park, New Mexico, and Bigfoot Cave, in the Marble Mountains Wilderness.

Later, he worked in house construction, taught in middle school, and was an analytical chemist at North Coast Laboratories in Arcata. Now retired, besides being his wife Kathy’s handyman, he teaches beekeeping at CalPoly Humboldt and plays brass instruments.
