Growing up as a fan of John Wayne Westerns, Stewart Aitchison thought he “knew” Monument Valley. A little over twenty years ago, through a series of lucky circumstances, Stewart met the extraordinary Gene Foushee, geologist and original owner of Recapture Lodge. Through Gene, Stewart now realizes that one lifetime is too short to fully appreciate and understand the remarkable natural wonders and human drama of Monument Valley. But he keeps trying.

Presently, when not writing or photographing, Stewart escorts natural history trips on the Colorado Plateau, Southeast Alaska, and Mexico’s Baja. He is author of Grand Canyon: Window of Time, Death Valley: Splendid Desolation, Red Rock-Sacred Mountain: The Canyons and Peaks from Sedona to Flagstaff, A Guide to Exploring Oak Creek and the Sedona Area, and Hiking Arizona (with Bruce Grubbs), among others. He makes his home in Flagstaff, Arizona with his wife Ann and daughter Kate.
