At Mammoth the river is nearly always dry, so I'd bet my next paycheck it's dry now. I used to drive between Tucson and Springerville several times a year. I was always amazed that even if we were h ...

I don't think I'll be doing the Canyon this year, but I do have a lottery application in right now for 2015 for a private river running permit in Grand Canyon. The drawing is tomorrow (Feb. 25). I p ...

Thanks! I ordered some new Teva sandals. Always have been comfortable hiking in those. I can't figure out how to get on this new-fangled insurance.

Same to you! I am mostly kayaking and biking these days, until I can get a foot issue resolved.

When I did Royal Arch Loop I did not come down S. Bass. Instead did Pt. Huitzil Route, dropping into Royal Arch Creek.
Route we took: http://hikearizona.com/map.php?GPS=25372

Which ledge? We did that short rappel, which, all things considered, was one the easier parts of that hike! There were the Moki Steps and there was the 1000 year old ladder to climb down as well. ...

Yes, some people do hike that loop when on a river trip. It means the boatmen have to sit around all day long, though. Not fun for them. The boats have to be moved downstream so the hikers can do t ...

Hi, Don, I had my own permit in 2012 and went again! I had an invitation for a 2013 run as well (private as well) but was unable to go. At the present time I am trying to find a summer trip. I hate ...

I wanted to find my own photos in there, but everything is out of order now. I tried to do a search but it didn't work.

AZH member Mary Simpson "maryphyl" lost her life in Grand Canyon this week, at mile 209, in a boating accident. She was a long-time Grand Canyon backpacker and river runner. ...
