I was in a Freightliner FL70 with a 40 ft gooseneck flatbed trailer and had to go that way all the way down to Roosevelt, at night, foggy and sleeting a little bit....smh...my first and only time I ever been through there. Now I see exactly what I missed..sad face, Anyway thank you, Now I have to get back to see it in the daylight.

    FYI, John Wesley Powell started his historic trip through the Grand Canyon just north of there at Green River, Wyoming, on May 24, 1869... shortly before Russ graduated from elementary school! 🤣. So, I guess that means that the Green River joins with the Colorado downstream, and it happens near a little town called Moab. You've heard of that town, haven't you?

    Judging by the striations in that rock 20:00 it appears that's an I deal spot for that dam. The upward tilt pretty much keys that thing to the canyon walls. Betcha it's one of the strongest dams in the world!
