Grand Gulch Canyon Part 2 is ready for viewing:
It was slow going in the canyon on the way up.
You may want to turn the volume down in the beginning because of Cody's fan is sooooooooo loud!!!!
Thanks,

Been busy and edited down a couple more parts of Day 3.
Here is the next, Titled "Grand Gulch Canyon - Dry Falls"
And the next: "Grand Gulch Canyon - Part 4 - the struggle or challenge continues"
By the way, it would be good if some of the characters in these movies shared some of their memories or thoughts!
Thanks,
Fred

After hours of slow progress covering just a couple of miles, the canyon narrowed to the point where there was only room for a vehicle to squeeze through in the wash. With little hope of turning around once we commit and the difficultly we had experience thus far, I made a judgment call and we turn around and left the balance of the Grand Gulch Canyon trail for another time.
Here we are going back out the way we came. Ten taking a little know and little driven trail over to the Savanic Mine trail, as an alternative over the Grand Wash Cliffs.
Thanks,
Fred

Here is the video clip of the "Staircase" and the Grand Gulch Mine:
The Staircase has progressively become more difficult since our last trip........I don't believe the Dodge Ram would have made it this trip.
Thanks,

Thanks Dan,
Start thinking and writing your account of your separate adventures in ST. George. When I get to the end of my adventure, I'm asking guys like you and Wayne to script for the report yours.
Thanks,
Fred
