Such awesome country! Thanks for sharing Ram.

Randy’s Rock, my favorite camp, sheltered us from the only rain on my 16 day part of the trip. Rather than rain, one could call it some sprinkles. The boats needed hauling back into the water, as they were high and dry. Lift, pour water under and push/slide down the sand. Some white water followed. The loop up Tapeats Creek to the Thunder River, over Surprise Valley and down to Deer Creek was all new, except the last 3/4 of a mile. A lovely camp at Deer Creek rounded out a full day
Boats to the water
In the Grand canyon, they call this a trail

I look drunk or just happy to still be alive.
Maybe both.
Ram
Drunk? I don’t see that at all. Happy? Yeah, that for sure. What is the expression? ABC? Anyone care to share what that means?.
Being slow and old, I found myself around Bill a fair bit, as he commanded the stage, looking for the outstanding picture. I had to show GREAT patience to get pictures of Bill, as my rule is “NO PICTURES OF PEOPLE TAKING PICTURES” and he always had that cannon (big gun, not brand) pointed at someone Those that provide us with the best images, rarely are captured themselves, so I admit to targeting him a bit. He is pretty expressive, don’t you think? If you have not had the pleasure of reviewing his work, please find it on this site and elsewhere. Great stuff. Others that don’t know Dan Ransom should do the same.

A very long day, to do two short Tapeats slots. Life in the Grand…It better be “about the journey” too!
