    Gordon Red on the Colorado River

    Back in 2006 Rocky had a special run of Gordon Red from Marton Mills. I jumped in with a casual (shoulda woulda coulda been a semi-trad). Had my USA Kilts Gordon Red casual out and about Saturday.

    First, hiked to the Horseshoe Bend overlook of the Colorado River in Glen Canyon



    Spotted some late desert wildflowers along the way.



    At the overlook - 1,200 feet down to the river. The beach just to picture left of my staff is the beach the next pics were taken from.



    After floating down the canyon and beaching at Petroglyph Beach looking back up at the overlook from river level.



    Back to the raft to float the rest of the way down canyon to Lees Ferry.



    End of the run at the dock at Lees Ferry. Downcanyon from here is white water.

    Looks like another fun day in the SW for you Ron. Nice pics!
    The grass is greener on the other side of the fence...and it's usually greenest right above the septic tank.
