The Colorado Plateau is Americäs western treasure, home to the country¿s highest concentration of national parks, monuments, wilderness areas, and state parks, and a near-endless bounty of wild, stunning landscape. Discovering the Colorado Plateau will explore this region through beautiful maps, full-color photography, and detailed descriptions of the areäs geography, history, and geology, as well as signature activities that encapsulate the best each locale has to offer.

Unlike any other book published recently about the Plateau, this book not only acts as a source of great information and imagery, but as a practical guide and a true celebration of one of Americäs most beautiful and endangered lands.
