we did orderville Sun. top to bottom,took about 6 1/2 hrs.
16 miles in the narrows has got to be a long day,then the return for your car--or did you have someone shuttle you?
nice pics as always
We started around 6ish AM and got to our vehicle at the visitors center around 8:15ish PM. Total hike time (photo time ) somewhere around 13 or so hours? Then drove back to Chamberlain TH and arrived to pick up the Rover around 9:30ish! Pretty long day but worth the whole experience!
That shuttle ride is long but I like to do it instead of riding a commercial shuttle and having to be at a certain place at a certain time. (I don't think I could work a real job anymore or live in a city)
It was funny to see all the rented sticks and rented 5-10 canyoneers out there!

yea about 1 mile from the river you start running into the "stick people"
I've seen them completely bent over putting all there weight on the sticks.
Think I'll just keep trusting my own feet and own balance.
be nice to us 5-10 people --although we own ours
on a side note we did birch yesterday,had dinner at the t-bird blackened chicken and chasing tail, I seem to be hooked on chasing tail

Awesome! Did you notice all the wait staff in the "Home of the Ho-made Pie" shirts! Honda did a commercial in front of the bird sign this last Saturday while Bo and I were in the Narrows.
Birch Hollow is one of my all time favorite canyons! Its fun with the short rappels that are not too bad to get onto, no permit required (as long as you don not exit through the Narrows) and the beauty! Favorite for sure!!!!
I have Orderville and some of it's tribs high on my hitlist right now. We should tag-team it, and we can go at a nice 50 or 60 ppm. Plus, I want to see this underwater housing in action. Do you have a full polycarbonate shell for your slr? Gotta be a heavy beast, I'd bet.

We should.
It's not an SLR... just a digital, but yes it's a full shell. Orderville was the first and last time I hauled it through a canyon! I tried it on the Grand Canyon River trip too and quickly put it away. I guess its just best for underwater photography.
Camera Underwater Casing in my hand in Orderville.

Tanya, that's a really good shot considering the poor lighting in the bottom of the canyon.
Thanks!!!! That's cool to hear from a real photographer.
I am finally getting the hang of this slot canyon photography! (still have a long way to go though!) It feels so good to get this flash/fill balance more under control though! I am still going through my photos..... Have about 20 more to look at. I am hoping for some good ones to post!
