Snake River Discovered by Kirk Anderson

This stunning coffee table book is a photographic exploration of 1,200 miles following the Snake River from its source in Yellowstone National Park in Wyoming. Across the Snake River Plain of Idaho, into North America’s deepest gorge, Hells Canyon, bordering Oregon, the river eventually crosses the fertile plains of Washington State to its confluence with the Columbia River.

Kirk chases the elusive elements of weather, season, and breathtaking locations through four states and over four years to produce a photographic monologue celebrating the largest river in the American West.
