Valley of the Dunes Overview

Colorado's San Luis Valley is truly a land apart, a high desert landscape lying within the embrace of the towering wall of the Sangre de Cristos and the snowcapped massifs of the San Juan Mountains. This spectacular region is home to the tallest dunefield in North America preserved within Great Sand Dunes National Park and Preserve. Valley of the Dunes celebrates the fascinating geologic events, the wildlife, and human cultures that have shaped this magical place. Stunning images by award-winning nature photographers Bob Rozinski and Wendy Shattil and Audrey DeLella Benedict's evocative text provides an unparalleled portrait of one of the West's most unique landscapes. Whether you wish to explore the gemlike beauty of the dune sand, learn how this ancient dunefield formed, marvel at the amazing adaptations of desert-dwelling plants and animals, follow the sandhill cranes on their migratory journey, or learn the dramatic conservation story behind the park's creation, this book has something for everyone.
