Kayaking the Colorado River in a storm - Glen Canyon Back Haul

Kayak the Colorado website. These guys are great.

I am not an avid kayaker. I usually hike, backpack and canyoneer. But kayaking is fun. However, I know my lane, so when I kayak, I pick a mellow place to do it. I've done the back haul to the Glen Canyon Dam before. It's great. You float down the Colorado River about 14~15 miles to Lee's Ferry where your vehicle is waiting. You can fish, you can camp, you can check out petroglpyhs....It's absolutely amazing. And an easy adventure.

Well, under the right conditions. Mother Nature doesn't really care about your plans. The Colorado River and Glen Canyon can be beautiful, but they can also be unwelcoming. It all depends on the circumstances, especially the weather. The first time I did it, it was perfect. This time? Not as much.

Still awesome. And I still highly recommend it. I'll be back. But I'll shoot for a 0% chance of rain next time.
