The Lower Salmon River from Vinegar Creek to the confluence with the Snake River features 112 miles of Class II-IV whitewater in one of the deepest canyons in the United States. Much of the 53 miles of the river, from White Bird downstream to the confluence of the Snake and Salmon Rivers, is roadless and accessible only by boat. The Lower Salmon is a suitable river for future Wild and Scenic River designation. The BLM recreation sites with provide access to the Lower Salmon are Island Bar, Lucile, Old Lucile, Shorts Bar, Slate Creek, Skookumchuck, White Bird, Hammer Creek and Pine Bar. Be sure to check those sites for more information and amenities for boat ramps or camping. For river maps, authorized outfitters and shuttle services, visit www.blm.gov/visit/lower-salmon-river.

Antelope canyon on the Navajo Indian Reservation in Arizona, USA, is one of the most incredable places in the world, yet very little known. Truth is, I don't know how it could sustain too many visitors. The name in Navajo means "Where water runs through the rocks," and that sums it up. Water has passed through red sandstone for centuries. But unlike other canyons in the south west, this takes the form of flash floods, not a steady flow of water. The floods only occur once every few years. Being on Navajo land it is a tribal park, and you must go with a Navajo guide. Tour angecies are located in Page, AZ, near Lake Powell. Amazingly, hordes of American tourists go to Lake Powell and never know about the amazing canyon so close by.

 

There is an upper and a lower canyon. In the lower canyon you can you by yourself after paying for a 4 hour permit, or arrange for a guide to come with you. Far fewer people visit the lower canyon, by I highly reccommend it.

In Peter Lougheed Provincial Park... pretty windy and cold, and pretty far out of the way relative to the quickest way back to Calgary, but definitely worth the detour. (Placement on the map is my best guess... the Yahoo! Maps plug that Flickr uses doesn't have the provincial parks shaded/labeled the same way Google does.)

Martin doing the gap into Lower Grin & Holler. I told him to get lower on his bike for this shot, and he nearly crashed because of it! Whoops.

While I was waiting for the ferry to go to Statue of Liberty from the Liberty State Park, I got this one of Lower Manhattan.

The variety of buildings in Manhattan is what amazes me. The downtown part of Austin is pretty tiny compared to this.

 

A human element on the bench would complete the picture. But the cloudy day with wet dew on the benches did not offer any.
