Download or read book Verde River Recreation Guide written by Jim Slingluff and published by Golden West Publishers (AZ). This book was released on 1990 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Verde River Recreation Guide differs from most guide books in that it is not just a factual description of the Verde and its tributaries. I tell stories, also. Stories which are designed to give you an intuitive feel for the water-shed, even if you never actually travel any of these waterways. I have personally paddled a canoe down the entire perennial portion of the Verde and significant sections of its major tributaries. I've canoed the Verde and its tributaries in all seasons and at a wide variety of water flow. I have also hiked many of the tributaries. I have had a great deal of pleasure discovering some of the special secrets of the Verde watershed and I?m going to present you with that same opportunity. The Verde watershed offers incredible variety and beauty. We are fortunate to have it. Enjoy it! Take care of it! --

Download or read book On the Verde River written by Friends of the Verde River and published by . This book was released on 2023-07-30 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Friends of the Verde River will publish a 32-page hardcover children's picture book, written by Arizonan Phoebe Fox and illustrated by Jim Fox, for children aged two to eight and their parents. Through this book, we will engage young families in the protection of the Verde River, one of the nation's treasures and Arizona's longest continuously flowing river. Educating the public about the vital necessity of the Verde River is imperative to keeping the river flowing. By publishing this book and making it available to pre-schools and libraries, doing readings, and offering it for sale, there will be ongoing education about the Verde River to an audience that is not often engaged by our work. Most of the financial supporters of Friends of the Verde River are in an older demographic. By offering an entertaining and educational vehicle that appeals to young families, Friends will connect with a younger demographic who may have been drawn to the river for recreation but be unaware of the animals that depend upon the river for their food and shelter and the plants that provide habitat.

Download or read book The Verde River written by Gerard Giordano and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2010 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Archaeologists discovered that the Hohokam were an advanced native tribe who built elaborate irrigation systems along the Verde River, and then disappeared. Early Arizona settlers recognized the tenacity and intelligence of the Hohokam and began to reconstruct their canal system. In 1903, the Salt River Project commenced, and the first lake on the lower Verde River was formed with the completion of the Bartlett Dam in 1939. Seven years later and 12 miles upstream from Bartlett, the Horseshoe Reservoir was created in order to expand copper mining during World War II. The astonishing result of these reservoirs is today's sprawling desert megalopolis of Phoenix, Arizona. Nicknamed "The River of Time," the Verde River is a timeline of Arizona history, and it is essential to human life and livelihood in the area.

Download or read book John Hance written by Shane Murphy and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Grand Canyon has inspired storytellers and mythmakers for centuries. Stories told of it in oral traditions, books, newspapers, and brochures have entertained and fired the imaginations of listeners and readers with descriptions of subliminal beauty and endless adventure. The best Grand Canyon raconteur of them all might be John Hance, the first permanent Euro-American settler at Grand Canyon, a river guide, and a teller of such tall tales that his talent for spinning yarns helped establish the tourist trade at Grand Canyon more than a hundred years ago. Yet, as Shane Murphy points out, Hance's name is now largely forgotten. Visitors to Grand Canyon National Park won't find a statue of Hance or a commemorative sign or plaque with his name on it. Those who ride the Colorado River through the canyon might learn a little about Hance from a guide when they descend Hance Rapids, the longest and steepest of them all. Otherwise the name John Hance, which was once synonymous with Grand Canyon, is no longer part of its story. Shane Murphy's biography is an effort to rescue Hance from obscurity. It provides insights into Hance's life before he went west with his family to strike it rich as a miner in Arizona Territory. More importantly, Murphy shows how Hance and his outsized personality brought the wonders of an equally outsized landscape to the attention of would-be travelers before the days of the National Park Service and the creation of Grand Canyon National Park in 1919"--
