You ask how do you get down here at the bottom of the dam,the answer is by bus.
There is a 2 mile tunnel that goes to the bottom of the dam that was built when they built the 710 ft dam between 1956-1966.
They look excided and ready to go.
We put on our helments and head down to the rafts.
This is the expansion bridge that crosses the dam.
Getting under way.
Looking down at them the rafts look a lot smaller.
We spot an osprey in the nest.
We are blessed with another great day.
This is Lucus, he was a fourth grade teacher as well as our guide.
In this canyon you lose total perspective on the vastness of this place.
That arch in the rock ahead of us is over a football field both wide and high.
The walls on this canyon are from 800 to 1500 ft high
Halfway down the river we come to a small beach where we can take a potty break.
Hey this is a 5 hour ride.
Somebody has to guard the rafts. But do they look trust worthy?
We are now going through Horseshoe Bend and only with my telephoto lens
can I see all the people looking down at us.
They are 1500 ft above us. What are they all looking at anyway?
I think they are taking our picture.
What they are looking at is one of the most photographic sites in the US.
Coming to the end of the trip.
We spot some wild horses on the hill.
We jump back on the bus and head back to town after a great day on the river.
