Back on the Water and Into the StormWe'd gotten some light rain the night before, and awoke to heavy overcast days. We were wondering if we would get rained on. This show is a little beyond Rabbit Ears as we head out of the canyon.

Traversing the CrackThere is a large crack that Z-man is going over. Makes one feel like the rock you are on is about to fall off. Eerie.
