Ed Lowry Colorado River Trip 2010

Photos from our eight day Hatch motor trip from Lees Ferry to Whitmore Helipad.

On the return from Cliff Dwellers, we encountered a large wildfire on the eastern slopes of the San Francisco Peaks outside Flagstaff. The fire had started within the past couple of hours, and the plume of smoke was impressive. As we passed to the south of Mt. Elden, the smoke gave the impression of a volcanic eruption.
