We ran prolly a half a mile before we go to the waterfall. It was big rocks close together and way tighter than SC........ Here is a pic of the fall before we molested it;
I told Cristina before that I prolly wouldnt get very far up this so she started with pics;
Once I got to here she switched to video; (coming soon)

We then travelled prolly another ½ mile or so of dodgeing big rocks and climbing small ledges to get to a split.... the line to the left presented boulders as big as the rig and a ton (literally) of diff grabbers. Here's FatBob cresting the waterfall after the garden;

Ted's turn;
TC and I are on video and this is where the memory card got full...... we had another but after this it was more narrow walls, big ass rocks and a 3 foot ledge that gave everyone fits but Cristina was 100 yards up the trail reasing and staying out of the sun......

Michael, I am sorry for soiling up your board with TOYLET pics....... :p
Oct 14, 2010 04:59 AM #93
I would've lost any bet made between you and the big fall. To see it in person and believe it could be done was just not something my mind could wrap around.

WOW. Great shots and Video, Sy. I can't wait to get home from work tonight and truly digest all of that. Kudos to YOUR photographer!
Oct 14, 2010 04:44 PM #95

Fantastic shots, Mike. Almost feels like I was there! (seriously lovin' the sky and the shots though. Thanks for putting so much time into this. We could almost do a cottonwood calendar...)
