Whitewater Rafting Through Desolation and Gray Canyons of the Green River, UT

These are photos of our family trip in Sept. 2008. Highlights were wild horses, pictographs, Mushrooom Rock, the Wire Fence area, and climbing the "Three Golden Stairs" above the mouth of Range Creek. We had both extremes of weather; storms hit us for about 48 hours while at Steer Ridge and Lion Hollow but it was gorgeous the rest of the time.
