| no partners | | On a river trip, starting at Cardenas camp, just upriver from Unkar Rapids, we took a hike to a beautiful overlook of the rapids, and then hiked to Hilltop House. I'd been to this archaeological site before, when backpacking the Escalante Route. It was once somewhat rebuilt by the Park Service, back in the day when they did such work.
As typical for motor raft trips, we then ran a pretty astonishing number of big rapids that day, ending up camping at Hotauta, in the Bass area. It was my first motor trip, and I was amazed we did about 5 days worth of river running in a day. This set us up to stop at Elves Chasm the following day. |
