Our trip on the Colorado River took us through Ruby and Horsethief Canyons. We stopped twice to overnight, once at Cottonwood and then two nights at Black Rock. The trip offered great weather, and beautiful vistas.
One day we hiked up a trail to the top of the rim. Below is a photo of Nancy and Joan taking in the views from on high.
The swimming at Black Rock was as nice as ever, except the water was a few feet lower than spring time. A favorite thing is to walk a half mile or so up the bank ( a 30 minute walk) and then float down through the small rapids with our life vests on (5 minutes down but loads of fun).
I took many photos of bald eagles and this was the best one I could get. He didn't seem too interested in us and certainly not fearful.
We spent a lot of time sitting in camp, eating and talking and deciding what to do next. There was lots of talk about Allison and Gary's upcoming wedding. And the food... there was so much food.
