Sunday was day 6 of a 7 day 6 night backpacking trip in Dark Canyon. We set up camp Saturday where Lost Canyon runs into Dark Canyon. Sunday morning we followed Dark Canyon 5 miles down to where it runs into the Colorado River.
I have hiked every weekend for half a year! Only 26 hikes left. How will I top this one?

Total Distance: Approximately 9.5 miles
Elevation Gain: Approximately 1000 ft.
There is not much else to say. I love this wild place. It is primitive. It is untouched. It is natural. It is one of my favorite places in the world. I cried on the last day out looking back into the canyon. I will return again, but not soon enough.
Orchid: The Colorado River.
Onion: The thought of leaving this magnificent place.
