Verde River Recreation Guide
Author: Jim Slingluff
Publisher: Golden West Publishers (AZ)
ISBN: 9780914846505
Category : Sports & Recreation
Languages : en
Pages : 178
Book Description
Verde River Recreation Guide differs from most guide books in that it is not just a factual description of the Verde and its tributaries. I tell stories, also. Stories which are designed to give you an intuitive feel for the water-shed, even if you never actually travel any of these waterways. I have personally paddled a canoe down the entire perennial portion of the Verde and significant sections of its major tributaries. I've canoed the Verde and its tributaries in all seasons and at a wide variety of water flow. I have also hiked many of the tributaries. I have had a great deal of pleasure discovering some of the special secrets of the Verde watershed and I?m going to present you with that same opportunity. The Verde watershed offers incredible variety and beauty. We are fortunate to have it. Enjoy it! Take care of it! --

On the Verde River
Author: Friends of the Verde River
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Friends of the Verde River will publish a 32-page hardcover children's picture book, written by Arizonan Phoebe Fox and illustrated by Jim Fox, for children aged two to eight and their parents. Through this book, we will engage young families in the protection of the Verde River, one of the nation's treasures and Arizona's longest continuously flowing river. Educating the public about the vital necessity of the Verde River is imperative to keeping the river flowing. By publishing this book and making it available to pre-schools and libraries, doing readings, and offering it for sale, there will be ongoing education about the Verde River to an audience that is not often engaged by our work. Most of the financial supporters of Friends of the Verde River are in an older demographic. By offering an entertaining and educational vehicle that appeals to young families, Friends will connect with a younger demographic who may have been drawn to the river for recreation but be unaware of the animals that depend upon the river for their food and shelter and the plants that provide habitat.
