pickIn 1938 Clover & Jotter were the first women to brave the Colorado River through the Grand Canyon. They were botanists studying & collecting specimens. Unsurprisingly, all emphasis by the press was on the fact that they were women & not that they were scientists. It was not a pleasure cruise, but an exploration into the unknown flora in the area. It's an incredible story.
