Rock Fall and Pool. Grand Canyon National Park. 1989

A photograph from a great trip through the Grand Canyon on the Colorado River in 1989. River-trip pioneer and dedicated environmentalist Martin Litton brought his wooden dories out of retirement for our trip. It was good to know Martin better, hear more about his work to save California’s Coastal Redwoods with the Sempervirens Fund, along with the good camaraderie with everyone on the trip.

A wet walk through a side canyon stream brought me to this rock formation. Walking in I was waste-deep in water, carefully holding my camera above my head, hoping my footing would stay solid as I explored. As I got closer to the upper pool, I was delighted with the view. There are color photographs as well, but this black and white stood out for me.
