  3. Landlocked on Purpose

    In the fall of 1922, Aldo Leopold and his brother Carl paddled a canoe into the delta of the Colorado River and found a wilderness of green lagoons, a hundred channels braiding through two million acres of cottonwood and willow, egrets standing in the shallows, deer in the cane, and somewhere beyond the firelight the jaguar they never saw and never stopped feeling. Leopold wrote about that trip a quarter century later and confessed that he never went back. He preferred the delta as memory held it, because he understood what was coming for it.

  20. 💁🏻‍♀️ TIL: 🏜️🌊 Founded by #Mormon settlers in 1865, St. Thomas, #Nevada sat in the path of #HooverDam’s new #reservoir.

    Floodwaters from #LakeMead gradually submerged the town, and its last resident rowed away in July of 1938. Now, after a #megadrought dating to the early #2000s, the #ruins of its school, hotel, post office, and ice cream parlor have re-emerged, and low #water levels allow visitors to walk the site.
