Here are links to my three most recent columns, including today’s column about a shootout in Escalante Canyon in 1917 that killed two men.

Ben Lowe, the man on the left, was one of two men who shot and killed each other on that fateful day. the other was Cash Sampson, a brand inspector and for Delta County Sheriff.

Here is the link to that column: Escalante gunfight 3-25-19

Earlier, I wrote about the water battle between California and Arizona at Lake Havasu. Here is that link. Havasu water war 3-11-19

Finally, here is a link to my February 25 column on the Depression-era gold boom in Colorado. Depression gold boom
