Book excerpt: In the course of the hundreds of Rio Chama rafting trips that we've logged during the last 30 years, none of us has ever had a bad trip. Such is the magic of the Rio Chama. No matter the weather, the water level, the season, the crowded Big Eddy boat ramp on a blistering Sunday afternoon, or even the coffee forgotten at home, the Rio Chama remains "The People's River." Its stunning beauty, plus its exceptional camping, user-friendly whitewater, and mostly predictable flows, combine to create one of the Southwest's premiere, multi-day, river running experiences.The spectacular, towering canyon walls of the Wild & Scenic section through the remote Chama River Canyon Wilderness is New Mexico's own "Grand Canyon." The geology of the Rio Chama is so exceptional that this river is ideally suited for a river guide with a geological theme. And so, following the release of the Rio Grande geologic river guide in 2011, we turned our (part-time) attention to the Rio Chama. Although most Rio Chama recreation is focused on the El Vado to Big Eddy stretch, thedecision was easily made to include the entire boatable section, from the highlands in Colorado to the confluence with the Rio Grande, as each section of the river displays its own visual spectacles and assortment of adventures. Plus, the geology is magnificent and diverse along the entire length of the river.

Download or read book The Geology, Ecology, and Human History of the San Luis Valley written by Jared Maxwell Beeton and published by University Press of Colorado. This book was released on 2020-08-24 with total page 518 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Geology, Ecology, and Human History of the San Luis Valley explores the rich landscapes and diverse social histories of the San Luis Valley, an impressive mountain valley spanning over 9,000 square miles that crosses the border of south-central Colorado and north-central New Mexico and includes many cultural traditions. Twenty-six expert scholars and educators—including geologists, geographers, biologists, ecologists, linguists, historians, sociologists, and consultants—uncover the natural and cultural history of the region, which serves as home to the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, the San Juan Mountains, Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve, and the Rio Grande headwaters. The first section, “The Geology and Ecology of the San Luis Valley,” surveys the geomorphology, hydrology, animal and plant life, conservation, management, and mining of the valley’s varied terrain. The second section, “Human History of the San Luis Valley,” recounts the valley’s human visitation and settlement, from early indigenous life to Spanish exploration to Hispanic and Japanese settlements. This section introduces readers to the region’s wide range of religious identities—Catholic, Latter-day Saint, Buddhist, Jehovah’s Witness, Amish, and Mennonite—and diverse linguistic traditions, including Spanish, English, Dutch, Danish, Japanese, and Mayan. The final section, “Travel Itineraries,” addresses recreation, specifically fly-fishing and rock climbing. The book provides a comprehensive overview of the endemic flora and fauna, human history of indigenous lifeways, and diverse settlement patterns that have shaped the region. The Geology, Ecology, and Human History of the San Luis Valley will appeal to students and scholars of geology, ecology, environmental history, and cultural history, as well as residents and tourists seeking to know more about this fascinating and integral part of Colorado and New Mexico.

Book excerpt: "To discover geologic novelties in the Land of Enchantment, all that is required is a good map, a sense of adventure, and New Mexico Rocks, a guide to 60 of the most compelling geologic sites in the state. More than every other state except Hawaii, New Mexico was shaped by volcanic eruptions, from supervolcano calderas to young basalt flows and cinder cones. Ancient Puebloans likely witnessed the most recent eruptions as they carved their homes into volcanic tuff, used pumice as a water-retaining mulch, and traded obsidian and turquoise far and wide. Legends of New Mexico's fiery origins are surpassed only by magical twists on the state's geologic gee-whiz sites. Nearly every western state has a premier pile of dunes, but New Mexico's White Sands are made from gypsum, not quartz. Carlsbad seems like just another limestone cavern until you learn the rock was dissolved with sulfuric acid, not the normal carbonic acid of rainwater. Silver wasn't just pried out of veins in hard rock, it was found coating the entire surface of a cave-named the Bridal Chamber by Lake Valley miners. Dinosaurs-including the Bisti Beast and Coelophysis, the state fossil-inhabited New Mexico and left tracks on the Dinosaur Freeway, but the footprints at Prehistoric Trackways National Monument were left by Dimetrodon, which is not a dinosaur. With its beautiful photographs and informative figures and maps, this guidebook will get you up to speed on every aspect of New Mexico's diverse geology"--
