Ke kūkākūkā nei ʻo Desert Roamer Press me nā mea nona nā holoholona e kiʻi i kahi palapala e pili ana i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka Territory Arizona a me ka pōʻino Walnut Grove Dam o 1890.
CHEYENNE, WYOMING, ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa, Ianuali 28, 2021 /EINPresswire.com/ — ʻO Greg Hawk, ka mea akamai i ka ʻimi waiwai ma ke komohana hema o ʻAmelika, i kēia manawa ke kūkākūkā nei me ka poʻe kahu hānai ma kahi kokoke i Prescott, Arizona e hana i kahi palapala hōʻike no kā lākou waiwai.
E hoʻokumu ʻia ka palapala moʻolelo ma ka ʻimi ponoʻī a Hawk no nā pane i kahi i loaʻa ai ʻo Bob Brow's Saloon i ka manawa i hāʻule ai ka Walnut Grove Dam. Aia i loko o ka saloon kekahi pahu palekana me $5,000 a $10,000 a me nā barela whisky i nalowale. A hiki i kēia lā, ʻaʻole i hōʻoia ʻia ka palekana.
He nui nā moʻolelo e pili ana i kēia moʻolelo e hoʻomaka ana i ka makahiki 1886 i ka wā i hoʻomaka mua ai lākou e kūkulu i ka pā a i ka manawa i noho ai ʻo Prescott, Arizona ke kapikala o ka Territory Arizona. He waiwai nui ka moʻolelo o ka moʻolelo, ʻaʻole wale no ke kūkulu ʻia ʻana o ka pā, akā, ʻo ka puʻupuʻu eli gula a me ke kālā me nā alahao a me nā kaʻa kaʻa e lawe mai ana i nā kānaka a me nā lako i ka ʻāina hou.
Ua hui pū ʻo Greg Hawk a me kāna hoa hana koʻikoʻi, ʻo Prof. Jim Fink, he ʻenekinia geological a physicist mai Tucson, i ka noiʻi ʻana i ka hāʻule ʻana o Walnut Grove Dam a loaʻa iā ia ka ʻike nui mai nā kumuwaiwai e like me nā ʻatikala makasini, nūpepa, a me nā puke mōʻaukala. Eia nō naʻe, ʻo ka mea i pale aku iā lākou ʻo ia ka wahi pololei o Bob Brow's Saloon i ka wā o ka hāʻule ʻana o ka wai.
ʻOiai ua manaʻo ʻia ua kanu ʻia ka palekana i loko o ke one o ka muliwai Hassayampa, ʻo ia ka muliwai e kahe nui ana ma ka hema a hiki i Wickenburg, aia kekahi mau manaʻo e pili ana i kahi i loaʻa ai ka Saloon. Manaʻo nā poʻe ʻimi waiwai ʻē aʻe paha ma lalo o ke kahawai kahi i kūkulu ʻia ai kahi ʻāpana haʻahaʻa o ka pā a i ʻole kahi kokoke i Wickenburg.
ʻO ka Walnut Dam he 110 kapuaʻi ke kiʻekiʻe, e paʻa ana i ʻeiwa piliona galani wai. ʻO ka wai i kahe i waho i ka wā i hāʻule ai ka pā, he 80 a 100 kapuaʻi ke kiʻekiʻe a hiki i Wickenburg, kahi i hoʻomaka ai e palahalaha i nā nalu he 20 kapuaʻi ke kiʻekiʻe. Me kēia, ua nui ka poʻe i make i ka wai e kahe ana mai ka pā, ua hōʻike ʻia ua loaʻa nā kino ma kahi o 30 mau mile ma lalo o ke kahawai mai ko lākou wahi mua a ʻo ka ikaika o ka wai i hoʻolei i nā pōhaku nui a puni me he mau pōpō lā.
Nāʻike hou aku e pili ana i ʻO Walnut Grove Dam Disaster o 1890 a hiki ke loaʻa nā hopena pōʻino ma ka puke a Jim Liggett, 'Arizona's Worst Disaster: The Hassayampa Story 1886 – 2009', i hoʻopuka hou ʻia e Desert Roamer Press me ka ʻae mai ka mea kākau.
ʻO ka noiʻi ʻana a Greg lāua ʻo Jim i alakaʻi iā lāua e kipa i ke kahua kahiko ʻo Walnut Grove Dam e kū nei ma kahi hānai holoholona. ʻO ka ʻohana nona ka hānai ʻana, ʻo ia ka hā o ka hanauna, e hele mai ana mai kahi laina o nā kahu hānai nona ia ʻāina mai ka makahiki 1909. Ua hāʻawi ka ʻohana iā Greg lāua ʻo Jim i kahi mākaʻikaʻi o nā puʻu wai, me nā ʻike waiwai mai nā kiʻi kahiko o ka dam a me ka waihona ma mua o kona hāʻule ʻana.
Ma hope o ka mākaʻikaʻi ʻana i ke kahua pāpū i kekahi mau manawa ma kahi manawa o kekahi mau mahina, ua hoʻopili ʻo Greg lāua ʻo Jim i nā kiko i hiki i ka ʻike i hāʻawi ʻia e ka ʻohana hānai holoholona ke kuhikuhi iā lākou i kahi maoli o Bob Brow's Saloon. ʻO ka hānai holoholona e uhi ana i 45 mau mile square ma ke kahawai ʻo Hassayampa kahi wahi kūpono no ke kiʻi ʻana.
Hoʻoulu ʻia ma kahi kūlanakauhale mahiʻai liʻiliʻi ma Illinois, ʻo Greg Hawk nā hana a me nā ʻike he nui. Ma mua o ka hoʻomaka ʻana i ka Desert Roamer Press, nona a hoʻokele ʻo Fantasy Dive Charters ma Port Douglas, Australia. Ua makaʻala ʻo ia i nā moku a me nā mokulele i hāʻule i ka wā o kāna mau luʻu luʻu lehulehu a puni ka Pākīpika. Ma hope o ke kulanui, ua lawelawe ʻo Hawk i ka pūʻali koa, a ua alakaʻi iā ia i Vietnam. Ma hope o kona manawa i loko o ka pūʻali koa, ua hana ʻo ia i ka hana kalepa a me ka hana kīwila, a ua alakaʻi iā ia e hana ma nā papahana waiwai wai pilikino a aupuni.
I kēia manawa, noho ʻo Hawk ma Cheyenne, Wyoming, a ʻo kāna ʻimi waiwai e kālele nui ʻia ma ka mokuʻāina ʻo Arizona, i kekahi manawa a puni ka palena me Kaleponi. E ʻike i ka ʻike hou aʻe e pili ana i kāna mau puke a me kāna huakaʻi ʻimi waiwai ma ka pūnaewele ʻo Desert Roamer Press, kahi e hoʻonui mau ai ʻo ia i kāna. Blog huakaʻi a me nā wikiō, me kāna puke hou loa, 'Random Tangents: Embracing Adventures in Life', kahi e ʻimi ai i nā hanana o kona ola a me nā pilikia he nui ma ke ala.

Nona ʻo Desert Roamer Press i ka mea hoʻopuka huakaʻi huakaʻi, ʻo Greg Hawk, ka mea loea i ka ʻimi waiwai ma ke Komohana Hema ʻAmelika.
