Grand Canyon flood 1983 100,000 cfs part two of two

Is that deer creek at 3:05-3:20?

Yup!

Holy freaking cow. Intense intense stuff. Thanks for sharking this with everyone.

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.

one of the float trip guides down the river from the dam told me to watch this to get an idea of crystal rapids during this period... glad i did..

Thanks...and btw; look again; that wasn't ledges camp...that was the Havasu eddy (river level is near the level where the trail curls into the canyon...J

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.

super 8 digitized by showing on a white wall and capturing with digital cam. Editing (and slomo) in iMovie. (the old version!) Jeffe

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!
