A town of about nine hundred people at the head of the Uncompahgre, walled in on three sides by quartzite cliffs that climb straight from the back fences. Miners settled the bottom of the box in 1876 and named the place for the Ute chief who had signed away the San Juans two years earlier. The hot springs steam off in winter. The ice park hangs frozen ropes down the south gorge from December until late March. Locals have called it the Switzerland of America for a hundred and fifty years.

Slowly infused into the ceramic surface under high heat and pressure, in our family studio in Knoxville, Tennessee.
