Presented by Robby Henes, owner/officer of Southwest Seed, a Native grass and wildflower producer/retailer located in Dolores, CO.   The topic of "Native" in the world of plants is a vast one with big ramifications in a wide range of applications.

We will start with some key aspects of understanding Natives for your personal projects and then explore some of the bigger implications of Native species on our landscapes.

The Colorado premiere of Anna Sofaer's third Solstice Project film, "Written on the Landscape: Mysteries Beyond Chaco Canyon," will be free and open to the public.    The showing, sponsored by the San Juan Basin Archeological Society, the Fort Lewis College Center of Southwest Studies and the FLC Concert Hall, will be introduced by the renowned Southwest writer Craig Childs. The film's national premiere will be on New Mexico PBS on June 20,2024., the summer solstice, at 7:00 pm.    "Written on the Landscape" illustrates the Solstice Project's ground-breaking research that shows the immense region of the Chaco World, using aerial imagery, precise surveying techniques and LIDAR (aerial laser scanning). Insights come from Puebloan advisors combined with new understandings of Mesoamerican parallels for cardinal directions, the interplay of vertical and horizontal axes, ritual roads, cacao, shells, spirals and the sun and the moon. The film also serves as a call to protect this ancient resource from degradation of the landscape from energy extraction and disregard of the environment.   The film follows the exploration by Anna Sofaer, Director of the Solstice Project, of the Chaco Canyon world of magnificent architecture that flourished 1000 years ago across 70,000 square miles of the American Southwest. This third film in Sofaer's Chaco Canyon trilogy, the prior two also shown on PBS, blends stories from indigenous and non-indigenous scholars to tell the story of an ancient culture with relevance for our contemporary society—both cultures, in the words of Petuuche Gilbert from Acoma Pueblo, having the choice between the good and the bad, between power used with wisdom and power capable of destroying the world.    The Solstice Project (SP) studies the astronomical heritage of the discovery of the Sun Dagger site on Fajada Butte in Chaco Canyon. The SP continues to research, publish, and present its findings on the achievements of the Chaco people, how they envisioned an order of cosmology through monumental buildings, non-utilitarian roads, and rigorous geometries. The SP has created a 3-D interactive model of three Sun Dagger site demonstrating in real time how three rock slabs cast light patterns that mark the solar and lunar cycles on the spiral rock carvings. The model shows what the eye cannot readily see: how the sun and the moon operate on the features carved into the landscape.   Anna Sofaer, president and founder of the Solstice Project is an American researcher and educator on the archeoastronomy of the Ancestral Puebloans of the American Southwest and other ancient cultures. In 1977, she "rediscovered" the astronomical marker site known as the Sun Dagger on Fajada Butte in Chaco Culture National Historic Park, which records the solar and lunar cycles.

From the author of the beloved bestseller The Emerald Mile comes a rollicking and poignant account of the epic misadventure of two friends, zero preparation, and one dream: a 750-mile odyssey, on foot, through the heart of America's most magnificent national park and the grandest wilderness on earth.   A few years after quitting his job to follow an ill-advised dream of becoming a guide on the Colorado River, Kevin Fedarko was approached by his best friend, the National Geographic photographer Pete McBride, with a vision as bold as it was harebrained. Together, they would embark on an end-to-end traverse of the Grand Canyon, a journey that, McBride promised, would be "a walk in the park." Against his better judgment, Fedarko agreed to the scheme, unaware that the small cluster of experts who had completed the crossing billed it as "the toughest hike in the world."   The ensuing ordeal, which lasted more than a year, revealed a place that was deeper, richer, and far more complex than anything the two men had imagined—and came within a hair's breadth of killing them both. They struggled to make their way through the all but impenetrable reaches of its truest wilderness, a vertical labyrinth of thousand-foot cliffs and crumbling ledges where water is measured out by the teaspoon and every step is fraught with peril—and where, even today, there is still no trail along the length of the country's best-known and most iconic park.   Along the way, veteran long-distance hikers ushered them into secret pockets, invisible to the millions of tourists gathered on the rim, where only a handful of humans have ever laid eyes. Members of the canyon's eleven Native American tribes brought them face-to-face with layers of history that forced them to reconsider myths at the center of our national parks—and exposed them to the impinging threats of commercial tourism. Even Fedarko's dying father, who had first pointed him toward the canyon more than forty years earlier but had never set foot there himself, opened him to a new way of seeing the landscape.   And always, there was the great gorge itself: austere and unforgiving but suffused with magic, drenched in wonder, and redeemed by its own transcendent beauty.   A Walk in the Park is a singular portrait of a sublime place, and a deeply moving plea for the preservation of America's greatest natural treasure.

Presented by Alex Graf, Western La Plata County Coordinator and Meg Hearding, Columbine Landscapes Co.

During this presentation, two experts from different fields will come together to discuss how to maximize wildfire risk reduction and maintain a beautiful livable landscape around the home.
