We ae blessed to have had a president insightful enough to protect these wonders.

Except that a lot of this, I think, is in Monument Valley, which is Navajo Tribal land. I don't know if this was an error by the Tribune, or if the plans for the area changed.
Betty Berg said:
Thinking about it, I think you are correct. Probably a little of both. Doesn't Congress have to approve national parks? Someone might have realized the conflict..... In this series, the one about Oklahoma is way wrong, they used old stock photos. Who else would have known back in 1907. I don't think many Oklahomans were subscribing to the NY Tribune then. Just the way it was.

Are you sure this isn't Arches N.P.? Looks a bit like it to me from my experience out there.
aware health said:
I'm sure this "Organ Rock" is in M.V., and I'm pretty sure the center left formation is. The others might be in Arches, but according to its website, the move to make it a national preserve started in the 1920's: www.nps.gov/arch/historyculture/index.htm I'd guess there was generic talk about establishing federal preserves in Utah at the time, and the Tribune editors just used whatever they had in stock photos. But I don't know.
