Review:

The result is a treasure, a work that fulfills the promise of its title: a celebration. --Clint Talbott, Boulder Daily Camera, July 10, 2005

Borneman and Caudle combine their decades of Colorado mountain experience to create precisely what the title states — a celebration. --Jennifer Harper, Summit Daily News, August 5, 2005

The result is a panorama of stories to complement the panoramas captured with Caudle’s large format camera. --Dave Philipps, Colorado Springs Gazette, August 12, 2005
