I noticed when we passed by there this summer that it's going to be one of those bridges that I have nightmares about... tall and narrow... You got some great shots of that!

There were a few places I couldn't put my paddle deep enough to get any leverage. I was actually in a meeting last week with a NY attorney who has worked on a lot of the Colorado River issues in AZ, and he offered a lot of bad news anecdotes. I just checked the flows and Ruby is high again: http://www.eddyflower.com/CountryDetail.aspx?StateId=1 Water rights are so messed... ~lmc The Colorado was pretty low at Ruby Canyon, Christie-though I don’t know how that compares seasonally.

I'm at the headwaters. What's going on in between us? Nice pics, by the way. Its good to see the happy little bee post-op. The Colorado looks just fine up here! I’m at the headwaters.

There was a great spot where someone had, once upon a time, put a coffee can upside down on top of a pipe; the ambient electrical fields there made it spin wildly. Also, I popped my head into an office area, and found the niche publications that deal with electricity generation and dam management; there is a niche business publication for just about anything out there. Lovely pics. Sigh. I'm homesick. I can remember when you used to be able to tour the power generator there at the dam.

I'm not sure how far from the dam we were, maybe a quarter of a mile when we had to turn around.
