Description
Join Warren Tracy, former Manager for Phantom Ranch (1989-2000), to learn not only a
bit about the history and construction of Mary Colter’s guest ranch at the Bottom of the
Grand Canyon but also learn a bit about “the road less traveled”, an unconventional life
spent at the one of the most beautiful and intriguing places on the planet.
It’s a glimpse “behind the infamous swinging door” of the Phantom Ranch Lodge and an
insight beyond the “normal visit”, including fires, floods and other firsts.
This presentation will run approximately 90 minutes and include a slide show of some most unique photos of life at the bottom.
Q and A to follow.
