Cataract Canyon, Canyonlands National Park

We visited Canyonlands National Park for an afternoon by car. But the highlight was a 2 day raft trip through the park. The best part was running the rapids of Catarcact Canyon. River rafting at its best. Many class 5 rapids. We all got soaked which was fine because it was around 100 degrees. We also got sandblasted and gnatblasted. Gnatblasted is when the raft is moving fast through clouds of gnats that pelt your face like bugs on a windshield.



Here is a great picture of Bart getting wet in a rapid called "Big Drop 2". We bought a special clear container to keep the camera dry. As you can see it was necessary.
