March 2008 Colorado river high flow from Horseshoe Bend

You can see the river picking the sediment up from the bottom of the river. I had a little problem with the focus at first, but it comes in after a couple of seconds.

Interesting to see that sediment getting stirred up. I live in the Lake Powell area and go often to Horseshoe Bend, so your video shows me how different it looks from usual. Thank you! I hear French. Is that you or a nearby tourist?

I thought that it was pretty neat to see the sediment getting stirred up, also. I kind of validates the premise for the flood. I live in Page and the French that you hear is from some guests we had visiting us from France. My wife and I met the father in France last summer and invited him to come visit and he brought his family with him.

I've just put up a series of bite-size glimpses my own self regarding High Flow 2008. Check it out. The best is yet to come, though: a piece I'm still editing on what changes we saw in the Glen stretch.

With your job, you could do a montage of Glen in all kinds of weather! Keep up the good shooting.
