In the morning, the plan was Tom G and Aaron would motor up to Dangling Rope Marina on the broken prop, and get it fixed. The rest of us would hang out. In the afternoon, we would motor up to the Cathedral in the Desert (CID) and shoot pictures, then figure out what else to do.

Lake Powell: West Canyon

Went down to visit Glen Canyon with the Arizona gang in March. One of the highlights of the trip was visiting Cathedral in the Desert at low water, with the waterfall hitting the sand for the first time in forty years. It is a remarkable little spot. We motored around the puddle, did some canyons, dodged the weather, broke a prop, had a good time. Here's the story.

Canyoneering Deer Creek Falls, Grand Canyon National Park

Deer Creek is at the bottom. Of the Big Ditch. As in 5000 feet down, and 5000 feet up to get out. Aaaargh. This is why you wait for fall, so the weather is somewhat reasonable.
