Register here for a chance to attend the ICL Annual Bus trip scheduled for May 29 to 31. Over three days and two nights we will travel to Flagstaff and Winslow Arizona, with stops at Cameron Trading Post, Wupatki National Monument, Sunset Crater, Eldon Pueblo, Walnut Canyon, Homolovi State Park, Lees Ferry, and Jacob Lake—among others. Our guides will be the incomparable Diana Hawks and Feather Robinson.

We will not be collecting money at the time of registration, as we anticipate many more will apply than we will have room for, so a lottery is planned. Those selected will be notified by email and given 10 days to submit payment.

Estimated registration fees will be $500 per person double occupancy, $650 for single occupancy, $460 for triples. Registration will open January 24 at 10 am, online and at the ICL office (658 E 200 S). We will accept registrations until Feb. 7, or until bus is filled.

Mark your calendars now for an unforgettable experience featuring outstanding archaeological sites, amazing history, great guides, good food and wonderful company.

Kaye (Whitefeather aka Feather) Robinson had the opportunity to walk in two worlds. Her father came from the Blackfeet heritage. Her mother came from the heritage of Liverpool, England. That means she can do Native American ceremonies to the Beatle tunes. She has studied with seven different tribes: the Blackfeet, Lakota, Paiute, Navaho, Hopi, Seminole, and Chumash. She appreciates the wisdom she learned from the Native American Culture and the Anglo culture. Both have much to offer. She has studied archaeology for the past 30 years and is now a researcher and teacher of archaeoastronomy, archaeology, Native Plants usages, Native American traditions and all the stories attached to those worlds. She is a teaching assistant at Utah Tech University for the archaeology classes. However, archaeoastronomy is her passion. She likes to introduce Native Science to others and to show that ancient cultures had wisdom and knowledge we have yet to discover. She now has a published article in the book "Star Circles" by Dr. Ivy Merriot. Dr. Merriot is an astronomer who teaches at the University of Montana. Along with "Star Circles", Dr. Merriot authored "Exploratory Research of the Big Horn Medicine Wheel."
