We had booked a rafting trip through the Grand Canyon on the Colorado River. The trip covered 82 miles of the river, about 25 of those miles were rapids and the rest more smooth water. In the Grand Canyon the servity of the rapids are graded from 1-10 not 1-5 as all other are graded.
We rafted through 2 number 7 rapids 1 # 6, 2# 5 and several smaller ones. There were certainly some hang on tight moments, but we made it through and both really enjoyed the ride. We were the last raft so got to watch all the rest before we got to go. The temp at the bottom of the canyon was 116*F at mid afternoon, however the water temp was 65 so when you got drenched, it was like a ice bath but when you got dried out on the smooth water areas it was really hot. The guide stopped often so we could drop in the river to cool off and there was lots of water to drink. Not much more we can say here, just enjoy the pics.
ok, who are you really...and what have you done with my parents!!!
