Is it always that much people ?:(

@DawanKS I am afraid this will get worse every year... I visited it 10 years ago and we were almost alone... Now you have a waiting queue ...

This is really cool! I wanna go there myself someday : ) Were there a lot of steep climbs?

[johannes914]

@jinnybunny Not that steep. That is OK for almost everyone.

When I sent the above I did not know Craig Childs had videos of his own on Utube. Check out his videos on flash floods. They demonstrate how enormous the amount of water these storms produce, all in a tiny area. Slowly, slowly, eating away the miniscule weak rock they encounter until they become fantastic convoluted wonders such as the one in this video. Just imagine! There are uncounted thousands of such gorges in this inpenetrable landscape.

Read Craig Child's, books "Secret knowledge of Water" and  "House of Rain". among others, to get a terrifying inside look at life or death rain storms in this very canyon and other similar areas. Craig works for the government to study such things and searchs for the mysterious lost, Anasazi people on his own time. You will never feel the same about that country's history. He is an amazing character in his own right: a rock climber, a daredevil scientist, a wonderful writer.
