Coconino County, Arizona – At the feet of Wii’i Gdwiisa, or Red Butte as it’s called in English, the winds are strong. Just a few miles south of the Grand Canyon’s rim sits the tall sandstone butte surrounded by juniper trees and vast desert lands.
A makeshift tarp awning flaps in the gusts while people work to hold the much-appreciated shade structure in place. On a folding table sit a variety of Geiger counters, used to detect radioactive particles. They chime periodically, reporting background radiation detected from nearby objects or carried in the wind.
