thanks for sharing.... i was a bit worried when you did not post a new adventure but then i discovered my notification did not work properly. Glad all is well and you had a great time.
seriously how professional are these guides? dare i say not the youngest chickens and not only make sure they are safe but that they enjoy an excellent experience. and all the side detours to see wonderful sights..
yeah no paddle plenty of beer.... life on the river..... going no where in a hurry.... thank you for all of us who are unable for many reasons to enjoy this adventure in person.
all hail the raft carrying the beer. just when i was relaxing with some sushi. off you go on hike and climbing. hmmm going down face first.... not wisest method but given the age of the climbers🤔. hehehehe still envious of slider's hair that he could use a waterfall washing... he maybe a small cup is all that is needed.
Thank you so much for your incredible videos and sharing your journey. I have loved watching these as I prepare to walk the Camino del Norte starting in a couple of weeks. Watching your videos has been a joy and inspiration ❤
Now I see the toilet. Open air excitement. The scenery on this trip was just beautiful after beautiful. I can see that a lot of planning and luck goes into a trip like this to be successful. It was pretty cool watching all your videos. Thank you for the documentation of the trip and the enjoyment that went along with it. John from MI
Well someone found some rocks shaped like a heart. I'm thinking the sun was pretty much relentless. The rapids were pretty good today. Beautiful view at 9:40. It's kind of sad to see the rafts being deflated. One last night under the stars. John from MI
That looked like a good set of rapids at 2:58. If you fall in, get your feet pointing downstream. Looks like the Ravens/Crows keep following you. Nice touch with the guitar playing. John from MI
So that's how you take showers on the trip! Did anyone need to be airlifted out on the trip? I can see many opportunities for trips and falls that could result in broken bones. I'm interested in the bathrooming on this trip. Did they bring portable toilets or have to pack out excrement? Or did you dig catholes? And what was the sleep setup like? Backpacking tents or cowboy camping? John from MI
Bet you wish you had your sit pad from the AT when you have to sit on those rocks. I'm way behind on your videos. I was on a camping trip and then life interrupts my viewing time. Looks like fun but it's a long time to be on a rafting trip. John from MI
The tour package you went with is amazing! All that gear set up each night, wow! The skill of the oarsmen/women! Finding all the nook and cranny waterfalls, pools, WOW! What an excellent way to experience the canyon and river!!
I've really enjoyed these videos. The Grand Canyon is so amazing, I've been blessed to see it twice from the South Rim. It's my favorite natural National Park.
The end of your trip was probably bittersweet-such a large experience with so many memories- but the promise of a shower, proper bed and a toilet would also be very exciting!
I would be on board with every aspect of this trip except the heat. If the heat is so bad that you look forward to spending hours in wet soggy clothes, that’s a bridge too far for me!
What incredible memories from early August, 2001; Six day trip with Western River. Once in a lifetime fantastic experience. If any of you are on here from our great group please give a 'shoutout'? I'm Jim. I have about 140 photos from our trip. If anyone is interested in the trip it is an experience you will cherish the rest of your lives!!!
