About the Site
(Best viewed at 1024 x 768 full screen)
(Best viewed on Internet Explorer)
The intent of the site is threefold: First to promote a scenic calendar titled "Exploring The Colorado Plateau". Second: To share some of the photography, trip information, and research sources used to plan photo trips. Third: to generate a tool that can be used to evaluate past trips, research new trips and simply record what we has been accomplished. The site is generated on a PC using Microsoft's "Frontpage 2002" by myself and will always be a work in progress. We do as much as we can to reduce load time but some of the photo galleries have more images than others and will simply take some time to load. If you are lucky and have broadband service they load very quickly-if you are on a modem be patient. Please view the site in full screen mode (i.e. without the favorites side bar).
The site as of this writing has been posted to the Internet for eighteen months - March of 2003. We originally outlined five goals in the last paragraph of the "About Us" page.
We have accomplished a good portion but not all of our original goals. In the next 18 months we intend to finish our original goals and refine and enlarge the site. Since the focus of the site is primarily photographic we will continue to add images. We will also keep up with and enlarge the trip reports and experiment with the site format. We will divide the current home page into several pages because of it's size. I do not plan to make this a commercial site only in that we want to promote interest in the calendar. We would like to add a page that provides mileage between locations in this region and do more to utilize maps. The process of generating this site has been a lot of work and also very rewarding. We have had 17, 747 visitors and 26, 121 page views since September 1, 2003 from all over the world and hope to provide a more refined and useful site in the future. See the "About us" page for more information on the site and the calendar. See the "About the Calendar" site for more information on the calendar.
