Uncompahgre: A Guide to the Uncompahgre Plateau

Rating:
Summary: A fantastic place - good description.
Review: Forget the "Uncompahgre Mountain" in the description of this book above - it's really known only as the Uncompahgre Plateau, and Muriel Marshall knows this plateau like few do, even those of us who have spent a lot of time wandering its folded canyons and open wide-viewed mesas. Maarshall has a unique way with words - this is one of the few books you can read without ever going there and still get an accurate feel for the place.

Rating:
Summary: Take a walk - a 100 years ago.
Review: I have throughly enjoyed reading this book. My grandparents homesteaded in the Uncompahgre Valley, and this has given me new insite as to what life was like when they homesteaded back in the late 1880's.
