These two pieces were created using topographic data of the Roaring Fork River watershed, which flows from the Elk Mountains, through Aspen and Carbondale, and into the Colorado river in Glenwood Springs. This map includes some of the most visited features in the US Forest system, including the Maroon Bells, Snowmass and Capitol peaks, and Conundrum hot springs.The first piece depicts the topography from slices of 1/8th inch wood, and the second piece is the inverse of the landscape, using the pieces that are cut from the original piece to create another interpretation of the land!
