Ulf Pike

Ulf Pike is a fifth generation Montanan and a combat veteran. He spends his summers in Idaho staffing a fire lookout for the Forest Service with his dog Zuul. When not fortifying himself for approaching lightning storms, scanning the forest for smoke, or watching turkey vultures spiral effortlessly upward, Ulf is most likely bowed over his mother's 1965 Royal Safari, snapping ink into paper. He's been published in previous issues of Wrath-Bearing Tree, SmokeLongQuarterly (https://www.smokelong.com/stories/mother-of-god/), and was recently published in the excellent Line Literary Review: https://www.thelineliterary.org/ulf-pike.
