In 1961, O’Keeffe traveled with Lucille and Todd Webb along with a dozen other friends on a ten-day raft trip down the Colorado River to Glen Canyon, Utah. After the trip, Webb presented O’Keeffe with an album of photographs from their shared experience. With his camera focused on the artist, he also framed the extraordinary beauty of the canyons accessible only on the water. ⁣

Fishing Report for all our fishermen/women out there..... Thanks New Mexico Department of Game and Fish for the report. Water levels rising!

Abiquiu Lake: Fishing was slow to fair using crank baits, minnows, bottom bouncer/night crawler rigs and curly tail grubs for walleye and smallmouth bass. Trout fishing from boats and from the bank this past week was good for anglers using worms, spinners and minnows. The water level continues to rise, but launching boats is still quite difficult and 4-wheel drive is required.
