In this arid region where mountain snowmelt drains through deep
canyons en route to the Gulf of California, the crumpled gneisses
of the Colorado Rockies meet the famous red rocks of the Colorado
Plateau. Join a team of geologists as they use clear prose, concise

illustrations, and dramatic full-color photographs to tell the deep-

time stories of 26 geologic sites, including four giants of the national

park system: Mesa Verde National Park, Black Canyon of the Gunnison

National Park, Colorado National Monument, and Dinosaur National
Monument.
