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 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! --
