Glen Canyon float
Now that the water is incredibly low, I am feeling very tempted to float the
river this summer. Of all the stretches of water in the world, I have had a lifelong regret that I never got to see Glen Canyon before Lake Powell filled it up. Has anyone here gone down the new river in recent years? Tell me about put-in, take out, how much fla****er is there, and are the beaches all mud still, or is some of it drying out for camping out. Can you hike some side canyons; is Music Temple exposed. The register at Register Rock? I think I'd consider taking my Blue Hole 17A with a small outboard for the long flats. I'd probably rig something like a backboard thing that could lay above the thwarts to sleep on if the banks were too muddy, and give myself several weeks to do it. What info is out there? This could be the last chance in our lifetimes to see the Glen. --riverman |
