Kilted on the River
Finally got on the river this year. Tried my new USA Kilts Buccleuch casual and it worked well. Lightweight in the summer heat, warm in the windy shade.
Great trip. Floated from Glen Canyon Dam on the Colorado River to Lees Ferry. That's about 16 miles through Glen Canyon. We saw eagles, a baby blue heron, and a big horn ram.
The water in the Colorado below the dam is 45 degrees F. so anytime a person needs to cool off, you just wade right in.

Here's one for you Ham,

And, here's that big horn ram. The joys of rafting kilted....

Great pics, Ron! Of course, Arizona's dramatic landscape is a photographer's paradise.
Bet you were the most comfortable guy on the boat.
Could we title the middle picture, "Skirting the river's edge?" :rolleyes:
