Colorado River Trip Day 2


We did more water testing by the river in Hot Sulpher Springs, and then we set off for Glenwood Canyon. We got a tour of the Power Plant and learned a lot about Water Laws and how the Colorado River is divvied up between states.








After another water study (I used probes this time), we set up camp. Ana and I stayed in Nancy's tent with her, which was great!












In the evening we hiked up to Hanging Lake, a lake that is surrounded by canyons. It was gorgeous, but the hike up was tough!

All night long we slept to the sound of the fast-flowing Colorado River and then woke up to the screeching sound of the trains that passed by!
