kayaking the mighty colorado up stream @ lee's ferry

I have to say it is one of my favorite spots. The amazing towering red walls, beautiful water and trouts. Boy I had to throw a lot of casts to catch trout this time. from all the paddling and fishing my arms were tired. we really got lucky with the amazing weather. no wind once we started to paddle upstream friday, which is amazing since it was blowing so hard the night before and early am. Glad to have some friends along to enjoy the experience with. thanks Jeff, Jane and Barry for joining us....D
