    Kilted Along The Colorado River

    Its about 225 miles from Rainbow Bridge National Monument down to Havasu Creek in the Grand Canyon. I've been poking around the area kilted for a few years now.

    I put together an album of 24 pictures from Rainbow Bridge, downstream to Havasu Creek.

    http://www.kiltphotos.com/thumbnails.php?album=121

    I had intended to have the pics in downstream order but it ain't working on my computer at least. Sorry, they're jumbled a bit. But they do give you an idea of what the Colorado River, and its tributaries, are like through my neck of the canyonlands. Wildlife I've encountered along the way here include Big Horn Sheep, Elk, Deer, Condors, Wild Turkey, Golden Eagles, and Bald Eagles.

    If the link doesn't work for you the album is on page six of my U.S. Gallery.

    Thanks for uploading the new pics, Ron...I really like the second 'South Rim' photo, the one where you're wearing the Isle of Skye (very nice tartan).

    Cool album Ron, thanks for all those great shots.

    Great stuff. Yes, I envy your fine tartanage as well.
