Elves Chasm from a 2014 river trip (my first & only) down the Grand. This was a private trip (biggest boat was a 17.5' Cataraft) my neighbor invited me on. Lots of high winds e.g. we got blown upriver from the downriver side of Navajo Bridge, which was very disheartening for the start of the trip, so much of the trip was spent making up the miles we couldn't row on the windy days. I didn't know my neighbor well when he invited me, but after 18 days on the river, we had become good partners.
View attachment 3708 I'll be back next year on a photo trip (a week long, so no time to appreciate the Canyon, but just a "get the shot" trip) as this one was really just a teaser.
