Black Canyon Feb 15, 2011

We boated Black Canyon today. The put in is right below Hoover Damn. Since it is so close to the the damn we had to get a permit from homeland security and had to be escorted down. We rented lake kayaks since it is a long flat run. There are 4 hot springs by the river. Our friend from Tecopa, Cynthia came along. It was actually her idea to run this. We had to meet at the screech of dawn- 715 am. They picked us up at the take out at 3 pm. Warm sunny day. Beautiful trip. Little bit of head wind, and a long paddle. Next time we will do it as a 3 day 2 night trip and take our time.
