They all are perfect days, even when a rain squall showers down as you set up camp, but especially when you see the morning rays strike the canyon walls as you quaff coffee, bacon and eggs, as you watch falling stars and meteors in the night sky, as you ride down into towering rapids, as you consider billion year gaps in rock layers, as you play...Read More ›
Western River
What a trip down the Colorado river through the Grand Canyon we had over 4th of July this year. We got to jump on our friends family reunion trip last minute and never could have guessed what the experience would be. From pick up at the Marriott in Vegas, flying to a dirt airstrip somewhere in Utah and enjoying a day/night at the Bar 10. We loved...Read More ›

But, our expedition guides Hyrim and Shelby made the experience even better. Super nice guys. Hard-working, fun to be with, and very knowledgable on the canyon's geology and human history. At every turn, they...Read More ›

Break Time Grand Canyon

When I tell people that we took a 3-day trip down the Grand Canyon. They usually respond "Yeah, I looked down in it before". I think to myself, they didn't really see the canyon. The view from the river leaves you in a constant state of amazement. There's a reason it is one of the seven natural wonders of the world. Quit the excuses and do...Read More ›
