Více o knize

The Great Sand Dunes of Southern Colorado, towering at 750 feet, are the tallest dunes in the U.S. not located near an ocean or lake. Designated as a national monument in 1932 and a national park in 2000, these dunes have a rich history, having been utilized by prehistoric hunter-gatherers and the Ute Indian tribe. Zebulon Pike was the first American explorer to document the dunes in 1807, paving the way for future explorers, ranchers, and miners. Today, the park attracts visitors eager to experience its unique landscape.
