Download or read book The Grand Canyon: Unseen Beauty written by Thomas Blagden Jr. and published by Rizzoli Publications. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The majesty of the Grand Canyon is celebrated from the Colorado River as it continues to carve America's natural wonder from a mile below the rim. As one of the Wonders of the World and the most iconic national park in America, the Grand Canyon enthralls six million visitors each year. Only a small fraction of those people, however, have the privilege of experiencing the canyon by rafting down the Colorado River. The Grand Canyon captures and evokes the power of that journey from the drama of the rapids and the immeasurable scale of the canyon walls to the subtle rock patterns and varied life forms. What started as an exceptional opportunity for Tom Blagden to raft through The Canyon in 2006 with Rod Nash at the oars has evolved into a passionate photographic pursuit that still continues. The route--the River--is the same every time but the experience constantly variable and deeply profound. Rafters never tire of it and, if anything, feel more in awe of the Canyon's magnificence with each trip. Tom Blagden's images and Rod Nash's essay reveal the canyon from a different perspective portraying what it's like to be on the river and immersed a mile deep, surrounded by rock almost half the age of the earth. On the centennial of Grand Canyon National Park it seems only fitting that we journey together to this unique place through the pages of this astonishing book. The book weaves a wondrous adventure that will bring readers along on a journey while raising questions about the significance of a national park and an iconic American river and how to sustain them for generations to follow.

Download or read book Hell's Half Mile written by Michael Engelhard and published by Breakaway Books. This book was released on 2014-06-11 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A high-water mark in river running humor from the guides and the misguided.” —Tim Cahill, author of Pass the Butterworms and Pecked to Death by Ducks “Full of great tales, funny stories, and river lore, it will make some river runners eager to get back into the boats—and some wishing they had stayed home.” —Peter Stark, author of Last Breath and Driving to Greenland “Just when you thought whitewater mayhem was no laughing matter, Michael Engelhard serves up Hell’s Half Mile, a potpourri of ticklish adventures and misadventures.” —Michael P. Ghiglieri, author of Canyon, Over the Edge, and First Through Grand Canyon “Represents the best in humorous outdoors writing and the lowest in guide culture.” —John Weisheit, co-founder of Colorado River Guides and Conservation Director of Living Rivers River wisdom postulates that there are two kinds of boaters: Those who have flipped and those who will. Most of the contributors to this anthology fall into the former category. You will find stories of rafters, canoeists, kayakers, and dory men. You will meet two brave youths swimming the entire Grand Canyon, a bear hitching a ride in a boat, naked canoeists, egg-slinging river guides, a floating turkey, and rangers assassinating a goat. You will witness epic wrecks, strange games and vehicles, and tourists getting lost on the river. They are all here: The misfits and misanthropes, the dreamers and daredevils, weekend warriors and professional guides, nataphobes and bibliophiles, “established voices” and undiscovered gems. Hell’s Half Mile is likely to become a classic in the genre of humorous adventure writing. ________ Michael Engelhard works as an outdoors instructor and river guide on the Colorado Plateau. He is the author of an essay collection, Where the Rain Children Sleep, and has contributed to a number of magazines. His most recent project is a book of stories about the western horse.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The bestselling author of 80/20 Running and How Bad Do You Want It? reveals his inspiring and surprising journey to see just how fast he can go. Matt Fitzgerald has been running (and writing about running) for most of his adult life. But, like many passionate amateur runners, he never felt he was quite fulfilling his potential. If he follows the training, nutrition, and lifestyle of an elite runner, just how fast could he go? In his mid-forties, Matt at last has the freedom to do nothing but train, if only for the span of one summer. The time is now. He convinces the coach of Northern Arizona Elite, one of the country's premier professional running teams, to let him train with a roster of national champions and Olympic hopefuls in the running mecca of Flagstaff, Arizona, leading in to the Chicago Marathon. The results completely redefined Matt’s notion of what is possible, not only for himself but for any runner. Filled with a vibrant cast of characters, rigorous and quad-torching training, and a large dose of self-deprecating humor, Matt’s gripping account of his “fake pro runner” experience allows us to partake in the dream of having the chance to go all the way. Yet for the gifted young runners Matt trains with, it’s not a dream but concrete reality, and their individual stories enrich this inspiring narrative. Running the Dream pulls us into the rarified world of professional running in a way we can all relate to, regardless of speed, and to take away pieces of one man’s amazing journey to try to achieve our own potential.

Filled with compelling stories of runners, running, history, the 1972 U.S. Olympic Track & Field Trials and the Munich Olympics, it brings to life an era in which the U.S. competed for gold in nearly every distance running event.

Inspired by Jim Ryun, Frank Shorter and Steve Prefontaine, Lenny also learns that Olympic distance runners have come from Minnesota and trained on the same River Road on which he runs. A world of running lore that he never knew existed is opened to him and helps him begin to explore and realize his own ability to run.
