Awesome video capture! There were several angles of that cliff, where it looked like a giant, petrified, elephant's or mammoth's head. Glad you stayed safe! 👍
wow we just missed this. We started our trip on Oct 10th and got off on the 25th - had some rain but no waterfalls but saw some recent flash flood damage in a few places. Glad you were safe.
Our trip was camped at mile 21 when this video was shot, not a cloud in the sky, funny how 20ish miles can be so different. Great work TLs going to the boats.
So lucky! I’d be panicking. Especially if the kids were with us. I’m the one that yells at my family to leave when high tide is approaching when we are in a cliff cavern area lol. All three (including hubby) do the most stupid and dangerous things. 🤣
Hello BikeFlagAZ, would it possible to contact you regarding one of your videos i.e via mail? I would love to discuss a permission to use it if this is possible. Greetings!
Now you can imagine how Colonel Powell and his men experienced it before the Hoover Dam was built (sorta). It was much rougher without the dam of course, but he described the water shooting off the cliffs everywhere in a large downpour.
@@jerrysagers5923 No. Powell was the first to go down the Colorado River in the 19th century, before the Hoover dam existed. He wrote about the waterfalls pouring into the river during heavy downpours. The river was much wilder then due to the lack of a dam, so it was quite adventurous of him and his men to make the trip, with no way out once they entered.
Hardly. This occurred less than one mile away in nearly identical circumstances: “Grand Canyon National Park officials on Friday identified a Michigan woman as the person found dead in frigid water after a flash flood swept through a commercial rafting group's overnight camp site along the Colorado River.”
