About this listen

In 1938, the raging rapids of the Colorado River were untamed and the plants that grew there were unknown. Two botanists, Alzada Clover and Lois Jotter, set out to document the plants and in doing so became the first known women to raft the Colorado River. Guest: Melissa Sevigny, author of “Brave the Wild River: The Untold Story of Two Women Who Mapped the Botany of the Grand Canyon.” PRINT YOUR COLORING PAGE HERE: https://bit.ly/cwk_adventure You can send pictures of your art to constantwonder@byu.edu!
