PHOTO WORKSHOP -  Arches of the Southwest

with Chuck Lawsen
October 11 - 15, 2010
Cost: $2,095
Register by: August 11, 2010

© Mark LarsonNo other place on earth comes close to the concentration of natural arches found on the Colorado Plateau. Marveling at the scenery around us, we'll photograph North, South, Turret and Delicate arches, with a few more locations thrown in for good measure.

© Volunteer Jim RyderThen it's on to Canyonlands National Park, where we'll see Mesa Arch, the Green River Overlook and Grand View Point Overlook in the "Islands in the Sky" district. Chuck will guide you to his favorite picturesque locations within each park. You’ll come away from this workshop with dramatic images and a newfound reverence for this sandstone paradise.

© Jeff CoxThis exciting workshop should be a treat for those who love the arches, spires, balanced rocks and other formations shaped by the dynamic forces of erosion and weathering.

SPECIAL CONSIDERATIONS
The area is dry with little potable water available. Be sure to carry plenty of water and most importantly DRINK IT. The hikes, especially to Delicate Arch, can be moderate to strenuous, so please discuss your fitness level with us before registering so we can make sure this is the right workshop for you! The workshop will be quite physically demanding in terms of carrying packs up steep inclines on what can be very slippery rocks. People should have very good hiking boots with good soles to minimize slips and falls.
