Reflection Canyon is a side canyon of Glen Canyon, now the controversial reservior Lake Powell, and its name can be seen on the USGS 7.5' topo map. Its beautiful curves and contrast between water and sandstone walls were first captured by National Geographic photographer Michael Melford in spring 2005, when the water level of Lake Powell hit its lowest since it had been filled in 1970s. It squeezed my curiosity again last October, when Melford's photo featured in the Retina display of Apple's newest generation of 13" Macbook Pro. I first thought this secret location can be only reached by boat -- there was a boat passing through the canyon in Melford's original work. Surprisingly, after simply googled the name, I read a (not-so-successful) trip report of hiking to the exact spot by German photographer/hiker Rainer Grosskopf. He was able to got there after negotiated a strenuous 8-mile (then doubled to make roundtrip) hike on rough terrain without any trail or mark, but the water level was significantly higher than that of 2005, making it more like a large pond instead of curving waterway. The water level is much lower now, but it is still 50' higher than Melford's luck, making me not couragous enough to take the risk with my limited travel opportunity, so the plan was put aside indefinitely until a couple of weeks ago, when I saw Chen Su from Kansas, posted a photo of Reflection Canyon with decent water level, on the social network website Renren. He followed the GPS waypoints shared by Grosskopf and told me it was indeed a tough adventure. Although I was pretty confident in finding route and hiking long distance in the southwest desert environment, still I thought going alone would be too risky. I grabbed Kai Song (Bro Bing) as the partner, together with two of his friends we formed a group of four and tackled the route on a sunny spring day. We were definitely stunned when we overcame the last obstacle and the surreal view filled our eyes. The resulting snapshot was not as perfect as Melford's -- the water level was still about 40' higher than the lowest thus the rock fins connecting the walls and buttes were still under water -- I still feel content and proud for seeing it with my own eyes after such an unforgettable adventure.
Reflection on wet street spotted at Knez Mihailova street in Belgrade, Serbia on a cold December morning.
A little reflection will enable any person to detect in himself that setness in trifles which is the result of the unwatched instinct of self-will and to establish over himself a jealous guardianship.
