CHRISTA SADLER PRESENTS: SEEING THINGS WHOLE:
John Wesley Powell, Understandin the American West

Seeing Things Whole: John Wesley Powell and an
more...0
Understanding of the American West Although most people are familiar with John Wesley Powell as the intrepid one-armed Civil War veteran who became the first European to explore the canyons of the Colorado and Green Rivers in 1869 and again in 1871-72, it is the work that Powell did following his epic journeys for which he truly should be famous. Powell understood the challenges of life in a land of little water like few others of his time, and his ideas for settlement of this region were visionary. As water becomes scarcer and more precious in the West, Powell’s ideas may provide valuable guidance for water managers at all levels in the coming decades. Join us as author and river guide Christa Sadler introduces Powell the man, the scientist, the explorer, and the policy maker from her new book, The Colorado.

The plan is to meet at Edgewater Brewery at 10 AM and carpool to the trailhead, about 30 minutes away on the Uncompahgre. The trail is only about 3 miles, so we'll hike to our hearts' content and then head back for drinks.
