Writing About Lee’s Ferry


Lee’s Ferry, on the Colorado

Sitting at home working on a chilly Saturday, this photo from a trip in 2005 reminds me that I’d rather be at Lee’s Ferry than sitting home writing about it. But it’s a pretty interesting place, so writing about Lee’s Ferry is a good close second. Sadly, since this is a book you’ll have to wait a bit to read what I have to say. In the meantime, close your eyes tight, imagine this picture and repeat those three magic words:

“John Wesley Powell. John Wesley Powell. John Wesley Powell.”
