3D Atlas of Salt Lake Valley's Tri-Canyon Area


Steven L. Richardson and Benjamin M. Richardson will be at Sam Weller's Bookstore on Saturday, December 19th, at 1:00 PM to sign their amazing book, 3D Atlas of Salt Lake Valley's Tri-Canyon Area.

Read Joan's review from our October-November 2009 issue of BookTalk (then check out the current issue):

This work on Salt Lake Valley canyons is a serious atlas, with accompanying scale, symbols and technical data. But, you may have so much fun with it you will forget that salient point. At first look the pages appear misprinted. But wait. Put on the accompanying pair of 3-D glasses and THEN look at the pages. Whoa! Big Cottonwood Canyon east of Salt Lake City suddenly appears in amazing 3-dimension. Each two-page spread has two views of the same area . . . one an aerial photo and the other a topographic map. Two pair of 3-D glasses accompany each book. Reasonably priced, and, a lot of fun.
