Women to the Rescue

Who saved Mesa Verde? Women did. Who created the national park? Women did. Women to the Rescue is their story. From the 1890’s into 1906, a group of determined, dedicated women did all in their power to preserve the ruins, make the public aware, and arouse Congress to action to establish a park. Then, at the moment of victory, they split into two factions and that is the rest of the story.
