Green River Raft trip post 3, Desolation Canyon & Gray canyon (9 days, 9/24-10/2, ~3500 cfs)

A long day with a stop at Mushroom Rock (petroglyphs) on our way to Flat Canyon and a lay-over day.

packing up early


Being October, the low sun gave the light a beautiful "morning' feel most of the day.

that's the beer cooler. on hot versions of this trip it would be sought out regularly. with the mild weather we had, we pretty much had to remember to fetch at least one beer a day or we'd be schlepping it all back to Boulder
Powell's Lighthouse Rock

to mushroom rock. it blends into the background well
it's a big freestanding hulk but it's stealthy
view from behind it. the petroglyphs are on the right side
an interesting panel. lookie there - not a sheep in sight! oh wait! nope there's the sheep. baaa

J saw the right squatting figure as a mother giving birth
