So the Ledge Hole was gone in Lava?

When we ran it later that summer you could have recirculated a bus in the hole. Maybe not a Greyhound. But certainly a school bus.

We were possibly the first small boats thru the right side of Lava. (12 & 16 ft).

I say that because after we scouted Lava a motorboat pulled up. The boatman got off and said:"Gonna run left?"

We"No we're running right."

Boatman: "Quick let me get my camera" and went running back to his boat.

Love to see those photos.

We will never see that again. Great footage of Tour West rig in Crystal. And camping up on the ledges.

Don't count on that.

Glen Canyon Damn is doomed. Bad Karma and a very bad place to put a damn.

Damn sandstone.

Oh good, I read your description and see this IS for RGTS. The music adds a lot and is well-timed with the great Lava footage. What kind of camera in 1983? Like that slo-mo editing, too. Wonderful job!
