Grand Canyon Hikers’ Special Rafting Trip

During the second half of May, 2004, I took a commercial rafting trip down the Colorado River. While this was not a single long hike, I have decided to post photos here because it was called the Hikers’ Special and we walked at least once on every day of the trip except one. I also thought there were interesting photos. We put in at Lee’s Ferry and took out 16 days later and 225 miles downstream at Diamond Creek. The hikes were up side canyons or to ridges above the river. Most of the photos were taken on these hikes, but there are a some that were taken at Colorado River level. Several photos taken along Havasu Creek are posted in the Havasupai Canyon file.
