Echoes of Time: Reflections on the Mesas and Canyons of the Dominguez-Escalante National Conservation Area - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

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.
