Thank you for allowing me to take over the canyoneering forum for a spell. I hope you enjoyed the journey.


After a lunch....oh the joy on Jenny's face when Rich shared his salami....we headed down a slot. One that had been scoured clean and very beautiful the year before. Rich lamented the lose of beauty from the deposits of gravel from a recent flood. The rest of us thought it was quite nice, not having the past view of it to compare. The canyon got the name "Buried Treasure" in honor of what it was and now is.

In mid afternoon, 3 of us fun hogs decided another mini slot was called for. It earned the name Window or Window Guy due to a window like feature and Guy Smith who was on the exploration a year or so before. Back at camp, we packed up and headed up the main canyon, out the side and steeply up difficult terrain, to the top of the Supai. Rich miraculous found water and Jenny found a way to access it from a deep hole, just as night descended. It was Jenny and my 11th camp spot in the Grand Canyon in March.

The next AM, the Polaris magically appeared over a hill and we started the long drive back to civilization. I would make it home after16 hours of driving. Thanks to all our partners for being such good sports, while I whined my way through these challenging places.
