Our visit to Cedar City, Utah couldn’t have been what it was if it weren't for the hospitality shown to us by a gentleman named Gaylord Robb. He works as the economic development director for the Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah.
From the time of our arrival at the reservation, Robb was with us. He introduced us to tribal members and leaders, took us to the Cedar Band’s smoke shop, took us hiking to see ancient petroglyphs (and dinosaur footprints), he even invited us into his home to see his arrowhead collection. It was an honor for us to be with him.

Every four years intertribal runners gather to make their way from Chickaloon, Alaska to Central America during the Peace and Dignity Journeys. At the end of their six-month trip, another group that makes a journey from Tierra del Fuego, Argentina meets them in the Kuna Nation of Panama.
Throughout the years, the runners have dedicated their journey to themes including children, elders, women, and sacred sites. The message of the 2012 journey is water.
