   The Museum is pleased to present this extraordinary visual diary of Gus Foster's Rocky Mountain odyssey. Gus has been more than generous with his time, his tales, his expertise, and most importantly, his photographs. His vision rivals the grandeur of the landscape itself, drawing the viewer into a space that is vast and powerful. Working on this project has been an educational, exciting, and rewarding experience for the entire museum staff. We are grateful for the opportunity to work with Gus.

Our sincere thanks go also to James Enyeart, Alan Wallach, and Roger Badash; their contributions to the catalog give the reader a sense of time and place for Foster's photographs, a context in the history of panoramic imagery, and a feel for the trauma, travail, and joy of trekking up and down the mountains.

Ellen Landis, Curator of Art, The Albuquerque Museum
