Grand Canyon Trip - June 2 - Departure from Lee's

On Saturday, June 2, we met at the hotel and drove 1 1/2 hours to Lee's
Ferry, the launch site for our paddling trip. At Lee's Ferry, we met the crew,
were fitted for our lifevests, and launched on our trip.
 
  
 
We paddled down past the Navajo Bridge for our first lunch. While paddling,

We made camp the first night and suffered from a lot of wind during the
night. We were all sandblasted while we slept.
  
The next day, we struck out for a day of hiking and our first introduction to
rapids in the Roaring 20s...
