Utah Tours
"The Utah deserts and plateaus and canyons are not a country of big
returns, but a country of spiritual healing, incomparable for
contemplation, meditation, solitude, quiet, awe, peace of mind and body.
We were born of wilderness and we respond to it in more ways than we
sometimes realize. We depend upon it increasingly for relief from the
termite life we have created." - Wallace Stegner
The awe-inspiring colors and landforms born in sedimentary rock layers
laid bare in deserts of the Colorado Plateau are unique to the world,
blessing southern Utah with more national parks than anywhere else on the
planet. Exploring southern Utah since he was a child, this magical place
still holds Keith spellbound. The redrock desert of southern Utah has a
bare simplicity that makes each plant, animal, and rock hold a special
place in the fabric of Nature. Desert environments vary with elevation,
rock types, topography, and associated water availability. Traveling
through these spectacular landscapes with your Earth Tours guide will
enable you to understand the nature and origin of the rock layers and the
landscapes they create, and how plant and animal communities are tied to
the underlying geology. People, from prehistoric Anasazi to Mormon
pioneers and modern recreationists, have also adapted to the varied desert
environments of southern Utah. Based in Boulder, Utah - a lovely emerald
jewel set in a golden sandstone setting, Earth Tours will guide you on
full-day and half-day hikes to special places in the Escalante Canyons and
Capitol Reef National Park, or can lead you on longer scenic tours
throughout SW Utah.
