Trip Description: |
Page Lambert shares
her love of writing on this exclusive river journey
for women, using her talent and expertise to help
teach us how to express ourselves in creative and
connected ways. Let the mystery and magic of life
unfold as you journey down the river through the
powerful landscape of Westwater Canyon. Discover the
joy of outdoor adventure while exploring the
creative wilderness of your own inner landscape.
Recipient of a 2004
Literary Fellowship from the Wyoming Arts Council,
Page Lambert was described in Inside/Outside
Southwest Magazine as one of the most notable women
writers of the contemporary West. Her memoir In
Search of Kinship and novel Shifting Stars continue
to draw high praise. Picked by the Rocky Mountain
News as “one of the summer’s hottest reads,” The
Midwest Book Review out of Wisconsin had this to say
about her memoir: “…a rare privilege to read such
writing…In Search of Kinship is to be kept,
treasured, and returned to, for the glints and
patina reflected in it are soul-enlightening.”
Lambert, who has
facilitated over 100 workshops, retreats, and
readings throughout the U.S. and Canada, was one of
15 women writers selected from around the nation to
contribute to Writing Down the River: Into the Heart
of the Grand Canyon. (Photos and essays to be on
display beginning May, 2004, at the Phoenix Sky
Harbor Airport Gallery.) “This is scripture from the
depths of our remaining wilderness,” said Hugh Sidey
of Time Magazine. “Kathleen Jo Ryan’s Writing Down
the River may be the most unique adventure book of
the year….” Additional excerpts from Lambert’s work
most recently appear in the anthologies Heart Shots:
Women Write about Hunting, and Deep West: A Literary
Tour of Wyoming. She has written for numerous
publications, including Parabola: Magazine of Myth
and Tradition, and the Chicken Soup for the Soul
books. Her latest creative nonfiction work, Sweet
Water, was written while sequestered for a month in
a remote cabin in the Big Horn Mountains of Wyoming.
She lives in the Black Hills of Wyoming and the
Rocky Mountains of Colorado, where she explores the
inner and outer landscapes of a life in transition.
