Book excerpt: What makes a place special or sacred? Is it the history, the scenery, the wildlife, the isolation? All of the above and more are what makes the Bureau of Land Management's Dominguez-Escalante National Conservation Area along the Gunnison River a special place. This area between Delta and Grand Junction--river and canyons, rock cliffs and mesa tops, wildlife and wilderness--is a colorful display of millions of years of the history of Earth. It is a place of human habitation from the ancient explorers of thousands of years ago to recent pioneers trying to establish a new life. It is a place to float a river, ride horseback, hike red and white rock canyons, ride bicycles, motorcycles or four-wheel vehicles. It is a wilderness in which to disappear and discover yourself. It is a place to find the sacred within us all. Join author and Artist-in-Residence of the Dominguez-Escalante NCA, Bureau of Land Management Joseph Colwell as he explores different portions of D-ENCA and searches for meaning. You may never feel the same about this historic and beautiful setting, or yourself, again.

Download or read book Ladies of the Canyons written by Lesley Poling-Kempes and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2015-09-17 with total page 384 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ladies of the Canyons is the true story of remarkable women who left the security and comforts of genteel Victorian society and journeyed to the American Southwest in search of a wider view of themselves and their world. Educated, restless, and inquisitive, Natalie Curtis, Carol Stanley, Alice Klauber, and Mary Cabot Wheelwright were plucky, intrepid women whose lives were transformed in the first decades of the twentieth century by the people and the landscape of the American Southwest. Part of an influential circle of women that included Louisa Wade Wetherill, Alice Corbin Henderson, Mabel Dodge Luhan, Mary Austin, and Willa Cather, these ladies imagined and created a new home territory, a new society, and a new identity for themselves and for the women who would follow them. Their adventures were shared with the likes of Theodore Roosevelt and Robert Henri, Edgar Hewett and Charles Lummis, Chief Tawakwaptiwa of the Hopi, and Hostiin Klah of the Navajo. Their journeys took them to Monument Valley and Rainbow Bridge, into Canyon de Chelly, and across the high mesas of the Hopi, down through the Grand Canyon, and over the red desert of the Four Corners, to the pueblos along the Rio Grande and the villages in the mountains between Santa Fe and Taos. Although their stories converge in the outback of the American Southwest, the saga of Ladies of the Canyons is also the tale of Boston’s Brahmins, the Greenwich Village avant-garde, the birth of American modern art, and Santa Fe’s art and literary colony. Ladies of the Canyons is the story of New Women stepping boldly into the New World of inconspicuous success, ambitious failure, and the personal challenges experienced by women and men during the emergence of the Modern Age.

Download or read book The Colorado Plateau IV written by Charles Van Riper and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2010 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Roughly centered on the Four Corners region of the southwestern United States, the Colorado Plateau covers some 130,000 square miles of sparsely vegetated plateaus, mesas, canyons, arches, and cliffs in Arizona, Utah, Colorado, and New Mexico. With elevations ranging from 3,000 to 14,000 feet, the natural systems found within the plateau are dramatically varied, from desert to alpine conditions. This book focuses on the integration of science and resource management issues in this unique and highly varied environment. Broken into three subsections, this volume addresses conservation biology, biophysical resources, and inventory and monitoring concerns. The chapters range in content, addressing conservation issuesÑpast, present, and futureÑon the Colorado Plateau, measurement of human impacts on resources, grazing and wildland-urban interfaces, and tools and methods for monitoring habitats and species. An informative read for people interested in the conservation and natural history of the region, the book will also serve as a valuable reference for those people engaged in the management of cultural and biological resources of the Colorado Plateau, as well as scientists interested in methods and tools for land and resource management throughout the West.
