      The East Tavaputs Plateau: A Land Fighting for Survival

      On the East Tavaputs Plateau of so-called Utah, which is Uintah Ute territory, incredible beauty fights for life alongside incredible destruction. US Oil Sands is trying to start up the first massive strip mine to produce fuel from tar sands in the U.S., while grassroots groups like Utah Tar Sands Resistance are battling to defend this lush and diverse land.

      Water on the East Tavaputs runs downstream into the Green and Colorado Rivers, and deadly toxins from tar sands mining could be swept into the watershed. Tar sands refining would also pump deadly toxins into the air of refinery-side communities in Salt Lake City. Mining the Colorado Plateau for tar sands would contribute on a huge scale to climate chaos as well. That means millions of people's fate is directly connected to the future of this place, and people the world over stand to be affected. Visit TarSandsResist.org to learn how to fight for its survival, and our own.

      2009 6 21 Utah, Tavaputs Ranch

      Morning flight on the day of our wedding. The weather wasn't very good, so the video is pretty bad. The following morning was beautiful, and we got a good video clip on the first flight. The second flight was marred by a VERY high speed impact with a weather station on the roof of the honeymoon suite (is that ironic, or an omen?). The camera is still lost, but the plane has been repaired from it's second "crash" that would have destroyed any balsa plane.

      We spent hours looking for the camera, and even flew back to Tavaputs the next day with a metal detector to look for it, still no luck :(.

      Range Creek, Utah
      The Secret Canyon
      Land of the ANCIENTS
      The Book Cliffs
      Hidden Door
      Masonry that has stood for centuries

      Range Creek has been referred to
      as the "Secret Canyon."

      These canyons were the home of the
      Fremont Indian culture
      for over a thousand years.
      The mysteriously disappeared about
      800 years ago, leaving behind
      innumerable clues to their rich history.

      Tucked away in an isolated canyon in
      Eastern Utah, Range Creek Canyon
      was virtually unknown
      to the world for 100 years.

      The canyon is now managed by the
      University of Utah
      Museum of Natural History.

      Most trekking here is done via
      bushwhacking or meandering up some wash.

      For peak-baggers or county high-pointers,
      this area is a nightmare & a challenge.

      Longest continuous escarpment in the world.
      Range Creek Canyon Overview
      Prehistory
      Range Creek has been recognized
      as a national treasure because of the
      high density of virtually undisturbed
      prehistoric sites that have been found.

      Nearly four hundred sites have been identified
      and recorded including granaries,
      rock art panels, ruins and artifact scatters.

      Most of the sites are associated with
      the Fremont archaeological complex,
      a term used to describe Utah's earliest farmers
      who inhabited the region from about
      A.D. 300 - A.D. 1350.

      Based on the results of radiocarbon
      dating it appears that prehistoric
      occupation of the canyon may have
      been particularly intense from
      A.D. 1000 - 1175, a time near
      the end of the Fremont Period.
      The History of Range Creek 1885 - 2001
      In 1884, Deputy U.S. Surveyor,
      Augustus Ferron discovered a small,
      perennial stream in a remote and
      unoccupied canyon on the plateau.

      He called the stream Ranch Creek.

      The following year, Ferron and four partners
      renamed the stream Range Creek
      and formed the Range Valley Cattle Company.

      For 115 years this remote valley along
      Range Creek was devoted to cattle ranching.

      Geography & Geology

      Towering cliffs and steep unstable slopes
      make access to Range Creek difficult.
      The formidable features of the natural
      setting is undoubtedly part of the reason
      that the archaeological record is so
      well preserved but it also presents a
      challenge to researchers trying
      to gain access to the sites.
      Plant Communities
      From the headwaters of Range Creek
      at about 10,000 feet above sea level
      to its confluence with the Green River
      thirty miles and 6000 feet lower,
      Range Creek flows through several easily
      recognizable plant communities.
      Growing in each of these communities
      are edible wild plants that would
      have been part of the prehistoric diet.
      Wildlife
      Range Creek is home to a variety
      of wildlife species, each living in the
      area best suited to their needs.
      Learn more about the large & small mammals,
      reptiles, Bullsnake, amphibians, and
      birds that live in the Canyon.
      Archaeological and Historic Sites
      It is unlawful for any person to intentionally
      alter, remove, injure or destroy
      archaeological and historic sites.
      While in Range Creek Canyon,
      please tread lightly and take only photographs.
      If you witness illegal activity take a stand to
      protect our heritage by reporting
      incidents to the appropriate authorities.
