From the majestic San Juan Mountains to the wide-open expanses of the San Luis Valley, few fishing areas rival the pristine beauty, diversity, and solitude of southern Colorado's rivers and trout streams. This guide thoroughly explores the region's watersheds: the Conejos, Rio Grande, San Juan, Piedra, Los Piños, Animas, and Dolores, as well as the still waters of high mountain areas. Included are detailed maps of the region and each watershed; area regulations and conservation policies; safety precautions, weather, and wildlife information; and a list of the region's important aquatic insects. For those willing to hoof it, southern Colorado's streams and rivers offer old fashioned, have-the-river-to-yourself fly fishing. But with this guide, even the roadside angler can find idyllic spots to cast a fly, making Fly Fishing Southern Colorado an essential guide for any angler interested in knowing and fishing ""the Little Switzerland of Colorado.""

The activities in this book can be adapted for use in several contexts. Although most are directed at the facilitators of large groups, many of the activities can be used in small group counseling or individual counseling sessions. Sometimes the facilitator will be a classroom teacher who incorporates these activities into the development workshops for teachers, counselors, social workers, and other helping professionals. Parents, as well, are encouraged to guide their children through many of these activities.
