Story Time with Reavis: A Matter of Degrees (opens the original)
Read excerpt
The blazing Utah sun made the desert around us feel like a furnace. On a positive note, it was almost ten degrees cooler in Arches National Park than back home in Texas, where the predicted high was 104 degrees. The trail upon which I trudged angled upward at least thirty degrees.

Here, theyâre created to water cattle, provide water for wildlife, or to give everyone a place to fish. Reavis Z. Wortham is an award-winning novelis
