<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt;background:white">The Colorado we live in today functions as it does because of events in the Sierra Nevada. From where and how we recreate to the water that comes out of the tap, decisions and policies arose
from the time of the California Gold Rush, and those decisions and policies originated in the peculiarities of the geology of the Sierra. In this talk we will trace, through a variety of maps, the changes to American law and custom that arose in the Sierra
and took root in Colorado.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
