Chasing Tsegi Wind

Imagine drifting over sacred red canyons in a hot-air balloon, descending into shadows where legend and landscape blur. Chasing Tsegi Wind invites readers into the untamed heart of the Southwest, where adventure, memory, and myth ride the same thermal.

Pilot, miner, and wanderer WD Olive guides us through a lifetime of desert crossings-ballooning into Diné country, racing a half-wild dog through a mining camp, surviving near disasters that test both luck and faith. Each story blends sharp humor with quiet reverence, tracing the fragile bond between human daring and the spirits of the land.

With the lyricism of Edward Abbey and the cultural depth of Tony Hillerman, Chasing Tsegi Wind captures a vanishing frontier-when getting lost was still a teacher, and the desert''s wind carried more than dust: it carried meaning.
