Quotes by Marietta Eaton

“Many people describe it as harsh. It is isolated. Water is not common. Its a place where the sheer skeleton of the Earth is exposed.”

“Weve learned where people came from, how they got water. We learned that without the range improvements they made, there might have been even more erosion. Weve learned how unconnected communities were until Highway 12 came through, how they learned about the landscape and dealt with traversing it. Weve learned how much courage it took. Its just a beautiful web of stories.”

“I get calls at least once a month from someone asking if we have anything on springs or water improvements or such. The histories are a valuable research tool.”
