GRAND CANYON whitewater rafting: 6 Day trip ! You gotta see this before you go ! 

Good for you and grandkids, hope to do the same when mine are old enough.

Thank you so much! I appreciate your feedback.

Hi Carl, I just finished a new edit on this movie, it is a 7 minute highlight of the trip called, " Unforgettable Moments " . Check it out. Thanks Dave

Have fun! You will love it !

Thanks, will do!

Great, glad you enjoyed it. I really workd on the music, it makes the movie seem more cinematic to me.

Hey Sabster, Hi, wanted to let you know I just finished a new re-edit on the canyon movie. Short version. It is a 7 minute movie of the BEST moments of the trip. Check it out. Thanks Dave let me know what you think of it.

It is called " Unforgettable Moments " on my chanel

Wow ! I am impressed. Good for you, you must have really enjoyed them. I am only 67 and I chose not to do it again. Instead we are doing a 6 night trip to Yosemite next spring. I am little concerned about the fires now though.

Hi Merle, we went the week of May 24, 2021.You will love it. I get cold easily so I took wet suit gloves with the finger tips cut out...wore them everyday. Also took wet suit boots and wore them daily under my Keen sandles.....that worked out well. The gloves helped hiking too some of the rocks were sharp. Make sure you are in shape if you want to do the hikes. They are all great. Getting acquainted with everyone on the raft was rewarding. Take a comfortable pillow. It will get cold at night in April. I got chiily at night in late May, be prepared. Maybe take a few snacks ? Take good rain pants and coat. Hope things go well for you. Have fun. -Dave

Hi D G, You must do this...it is great ! I went May 27. I think it is the best time to go. Not too hot and not too cold. Plenty of sun. The water is the prettiest in the spring, later on in the summer it turns brown due to the rainy season. I used a go pro 9. I took 5 batteries with me and a power pack. I went thru 2-3 batteries a day. I just did a re edit on this movie and I now have a 7 minute version to watch. Thanks, hope you make it

Yes, if you want to get the most out of the trip, get in shape, if you are not already. We had some really cool hikes I would have not wanted to miss. Most less than a mile but one or two were very steep. I got winded. Our temps were from 90 t0 106 and down to about 58 at night. I slept in a sweat shirt. Still needed a rain suit on most days due to cold water. I took snacks but did not need them, we were very well fed. I wore wet suit gloves and footies, you may not need them in August but I am glad I had them ? Take a good small pillow. Go on all the hikes...they were great ! If you plan to video put " RAINX " on yor lens to keep off water spots and take many batteries ,I took 5 go pro batteries and a charger. 2 batteries died from the heat. Make sure you do not sleep by a side canyon, that is how the fatlaties happened after a hard rain this summer. any other questions let me know. Have fun. Dave

@@davemaukmarionohio6582 Thank you Dave! Friday is our big day. Supposed to be 110 degrees down there.

Have a great trip ! Do not pass up any of the hikes, they were all amazing.

Fantastic footage! Thx for this. I’m doing a 7 day trip in August 2024 at age 72. Wish me luck! Seeing this is amazing! Can’t wait!

Great, I was 66 at the time and I did fine.

Great, you will love it ! We made our reservations a year and a half prior to going and we were lucky to get them then. We went on the 6 day trip with Western River Exp. It was literally a trip of a life time. We are hiking Yosemite in 2 weeks, another bucket list item. They have had record snow fall and melt this year.

We camped right next to a very similar grouping of scheist, it was still hot the next morning.
