    that was rhetorical, right?
    But if I agreed with you, we would both be wrong.

    I can't speak for this person but I like to keep loose in the canyons by multitasking: talking on the satellite phone, sipping canned Starbucks lattes, consulting my GPS continuously, running the Hero video, and flipping off my fellow canyoneers when they tell me I am moving too slow and taking up too much canyon. But then I am just one Southern Californian.

    I took this shot at Emerald Pools back in 05. A lady was carrying a pizza box under her arm!

    You know what's ironic - I saw a similar lady at Temple of Sinawava, walking to the Narrows ALSO carrying a Little Caesar's Pizza box and was eating a slice as she walked with that box. And she was probably half way down the path too - impressive!

    That's really funny though, that you saw the same thing too...just on a different day. haha
