Wow! Just amazing- I'm grateful to have rafted the beautiful Dolores nearly 20 years ago now... with good flow. It was my first multi-day river tip and the change through iconic eco-systems and life-zones was a formative experience that set me up for a life-long love of the diverse Colorado Plateau. Well done- Hope to cross paths sometime.

Just passed through recently and camped on the river between Bedrock and the San Miguel in rain storm that made the road nearly impassable. Memories of the river 40 years ago flooding into the present moments. Lived in La Sal, Ut back long before Moab and the region turned into such a commercial trendy place to take your camera/phone. I thought of Ed Abbey's line about "industrial tourism" where $$ rains on the locals everyday and leaves to the out of town owners of most of the businesses. Thanks for your fine film and introduction to the story of this challenged river basin.

Great production!I was surprised the town of Rico was not also mentioned in the segment regarding mining history for uranium along the Dolores River Canyon. Rico was directly tied to the further refinement of the said mined uranium and was responsible for producing sulfuric acid, those several tailings ponds just north of Rico along the river is the old acid plant. There are historical accounts in which the company would over produce, draining their tailings directly into the Dolores River, the town was often in an orange cloud that literally produced acid rain. There are still exposed tailings piles on the bank of the Dolores River all throughout the town and including a few tributaries, some worse than others. Being so close to the headwaters of the Dolores, and the insanely damaging impact Rico had on the Dolores, it is important people know all of the story. The freestone length of the river is just as significant as the tailwaters.

Couldn't agree more. The Rico mining district deserved mention, and I believe I've found some old Dolores Star newspaper clippings talking about tailings turning the river orange, an interesting a deserving chapter of the rivers human history. The old McPhee lumber days, and the Paradox injection facility were other aspects we didn't get enough time to cover. So much to tell!
