The Bears Ears National Monument is a stunning landscape in the heart of the American Southwest.

For centuries, the Bears Ears region has been home to many Native American tribes and has been the site of significant cultural and spiritual practices. Archaeological evidence suggests that the area has been inhabited by humans for at least 10,000 years, and the area is still home to many Native American tribes today. The Bears Ears region is a place of incredible natural beauty, and it is also a place of great cultural and historical significance. It is a place that must be protected and preserved for future generations to enjoy.

Comments

Andy Waite: I have read a dozen or so books by this author and his books about the southwest are his best. I would suggest reading " In Search of the Old Ones" and " The Lost World of the Old Ones" also. The Bears Ears book is a informative and very interesting read about the human footprint on this 1.3 million acres. There is a touch of politics ( impossible to ignore) but but not enough to drive me away. This whole area needs to be protected in my opinion. Fascinating history from many angles and points of view. Great storytelling.

Gary Gonyar: This book provided me with a better understanding of the history of The Bears Ears, with many different perspectives. Very thought provoking in many ways.

ironmanth: I cannot read enough by this brilliant author. I cherish every word so far and beyond of the eight or so books I've read by him. I ordered this Kindle edition the same day I found about David Roberts' passing from cancer, my aim being to preserve his legendary status in my heart as explorer, climber, and writer. Too, as much to silently rail against the most insidious and cruel disease known, one claiming that of countless others, as if to staunchly say that cancer will never, ever win.

David does his usual exemplary job of getting both sides of a story, and seamessly infuses his love of the area into every page and paragraph. I hope and pray that this marvelous piece of the West is retained in the best way for future generations.

Bertha Aguirre: This is a great story of Bears Ears and the surrounding. It sounds like there are so many Ancient Anasazi that live in that area thousand of years ago and left behind so much adobe ruins/cherts/pots/baskets/sandals/petroglyphs and etc. A lot of pothunters destroyed a lot of it in the area and probably still going on to this day. You have the Navajo (Dine'), Ute, Hopi tribe that live in that area too, but they do not bother what the Puebloans life behind. A beautiful place to visit and hike. It is close to Canyonlands National Park by Moab and Bluff, Utah. Learn a lot about the wilderness and the local people. I agree that it should stay as a national monument for people to enjoy. Great history book.

sisgirl: Sent this to my nephew in Arizona as a surprise birthday gift. He called immediately to say he'd read a couple of other books by the same author, and had really enjoyed them. He's mentioned it several times when we talk, so I know he really liked it. He reads a lot of western history (and fiction), told me this was the best of what he's read so far.
