The Colorado River has flowed from source to sea for 6 million years. It is old. Older than most things. And people have lived in relationship with the river for 1000's of years. Their descendants still call the river home. Yet today the river no longer reaches its historical terminus, the Sea of Cortez. This new reality coincides with the arrival of Anglo settlers and is a direct result of a series of policies that have affected where the river is allowed to flow and where the river is allowed to die. This episode dives into that story. Part 1 of a 6-part series.
