Book Description
Excerpt from Songs of the Rockies The Longs Peak oberland, and the region closely associated with it, includes both slopes of the Front Range of the Rocky Mountains, from the Arapahoes on the south to Flat Top on the north, including the connecting Mummy and Medicine Bow ranges and the Continental Divide to the Rabbit Ears. Seen from Estes Park and the Great Plains on the east, and from the floors and west rims of Middle and North Parks, the great mountain appears as a huge central mass supported by vast ranges on the north and south. In reality, the peak is on a short spur range a mile east of the Continental Divide, but this separating distance is so slight as to be imperceptible when the range is viewed en masse. Two of the four large interstate rivers rising in Colorado, the Platte and the Colorado, find their sources in this region; the former, not only receives an immense flood from the tributary Boulder, St. Vrain, Thompson and Poudre streams, but is also greatly augmented by the splendid flow of the North Platte, streaming northward into Wyoming. The three great parks - Middle, North and Estes, all head in the close vicinity of the lofty summit of the American Matterhorn - Longs Peak.

Pages : 276
Book Description
Celebrating her life-long love for the land above the trees, author Joyce Gellhorn takes readers on a season-by-season tour of the alpine tundra. With clear, readable prose and 140 beautiful color photographs (from her collection that spans some twenty-five years), Gellhorn reveals the subtle wonders of this haunting landscape. The plants and animals that populate this often harsh and unforgiving environment have evolved remarkable strategies for survival in their high mountain home. Faced with bitter cold, scouring winds and fierce storms, they must somehow hold on and still find water and nourishment. Gellhorn tells us how they do it, and the intricacies and precariousness of these strategies are astonishing.The high country of the Colorado Rocky Mountains has been a destination and a home for Joyce Gellhorn for more than fifty years, including some twelve years spent living with her family at the University of Colorado's research station, Science Lodge -- a log cabin at 9,500 feet. Like the snow that would sift through the chinks in the cabin, the alpine, despite its harshness, captured her heart.She writes: The clear mountain air, the scenery, the invigorating feeling of physical activity, and the fascinating plants, animals, and insects captivated me. Through the years, these wind-blown forlorn places continue to excite me. It is their wildness -- untamed and unpredictable. No matter how many times I visit the alpine, even areas I know intimately, it always shows a different face.
