Its disapointing that Steve is not amenable to a transition plan, but this is his content, so he has unquestionble ownership, and I must respect his wishes.
I won't pretend to understand his reasoning for refusing to transition the site to long term hosting. He literally put years of effort into creating this content, only to effectively throw it away. If he was concerned about keeping the content updated, then converting it to PDF or dead tree format will obviously not accomplish that goal.
Its frustrating and disapointing that some people who have taken up the mantle to host Death Valley knowledge & communities can be so capricious about what they started, with little regard for those who have come to rely on their efforts.
