Who Put a Crack in The Glen Canyon Dam?

from The Atlas Obscura Podcast · host SiriusXM Podcasts & Atlas Obscura

Utah bookseller Ken Sanders has spent his life fighting the Glen Canyon Dam. Inspired by a band of cowboy ecoterrorists in his favorite Western novel, The Monkey Wrench Gang, Ken's used his own blend of hijinks and illegal actions to free the Colorado River. For years he thought he'd failed. But these days, he sees a glimmer of hope that something big is about to change.  Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
