Add to basketThis book is about the reality -- not the pretty images of postcards and promotions, but a stark, varied, vibrant, arresting land. This is Colorado not far removed from the days when it awed trailblazers like Zebulon Pike and Stephen Long, when it made skilled fur trappers cautious and hardened miners dutifully afraid. It is also the Colorado still untamed and known today by those whose chosen lifestyles keep them close to the throb and pulse of the land: farmers and ranchers, guides and ditch riders, mountaineers and river rats and their kin. The vision of this book is of diversity and change which are essences of the natural environment at its healthiest. Here are the basics: rock, running water, snow, ice, wind, cold, heat, cloud, sky and space. Here also are the varied landforms: mountain and plain, canyon and gorge, Mesa and butte, gulch and wash. And here equally is the State's brush, lichen and sedge, prairie dog and deer. This is an over sized book and will require extra postage. There is a gift inscription on the title page. Otherwise, the book is clean and has no markings or highlighting. Magnificent photography.
