 5/30/2025 Exploring the Canyon's South Rim

We were ready for our helicopter flight over the Canyon.
Unfortunately, we were divided unevenly 
when we were ready for take-off 
(which I didn't understand since 10 divided by 2 equals 5). 
As soon as we ended up with 6, I knew we were toast 
when it came to getting a nice window seat for filming.
I will try to load some videos so you get an idea of the Canyon.




Lake Powell, 187 miles long, with a shoreline of more than 1,900 miles and almost 100 major side canyons, was formed in 1963 
with the construction of the Glen Canyon Dam.
The Colorado River and its tributaries feed much of the water for
 7 states- Wyoming, Nevada, Utah, Colorado, California, 
Arizona, and New Mexico.
