Back from the Canyon

[Irulan]

we did groovers from PRO, the food rented and one boat... our kid rowed ours so we needed to rent a 16'. As for the rapid below Pearce, no one in my group of Class 5 boaters was remotely interested. They may be experts but they aren't stupid.

Some of our group wanted to do our own groovers. My hubby, the TL, basically told them no way. For $0.60/day per person, it's crazy to do it yourself when there are other options. For the uninitiated, a groover is a portable toilet that is an ammo can. You have to carry out all human waste. A trip like this can easily generate 5 or 6 rocket boxes full of crap, literally. You then clean them out at an RV scat machine after the trip, but it's a really sh*tty job.

How many days did you do? We missed the desert bloom mostly.
