Re: What are you reading?
That's a good book, and a sad story.

one of the better books I've read in quite some time.
Just finished Into Thin Air and loved it. Starting The Beach next.

Re: What are you reading?
Just finished this and can’t recommend it enough. A page turning story, at least in the second half, as well as a fascinating history of Lake Powell, the dam, and the canyon.
Re: What are you reading?
I agree. I found the book particularly relevant as I lived in Ticaboo, UT (10 miles N of Bullfrog Marina, Lake Powell) in 1983, the year of the fast boat ride.
