Wild in the Southwest


Book Description

"'Wild in the Southwest' is the fruit of Brett Nelson's passions for hiking, backpacking, and photography in New Mexico and the Four Corners area for more than 25 years. It focuses on the country of the Colorado Plateau that Edward Abbey wrote so engagingly about -- the area drained by the Colorado River and its tributary river, creeks and intermittent streams in Utah, Arizona, Colorado and New Mexico. Inside are 172 full color photographs accompanied by commentary that identifies and describes the locations, explains some geologic and historical background, provides information about how to reach places featured, and shares anecdotal material from the author's experiences on the many journeys he's made throughout the fascinating place called the Colorado Plateau." -- back cover
