continued down Saddle Canyon, which now had flow from Crazy Jug.\u00a0 However, the flow wasn&#8217;t very much, so it didn&#8217;t make travel difficult.\u00a0 It was the typical weave back and forth across the stream, but I mostly just followed the stream bed as the footprints of the others ahead of me had.\u00a0 Travel went pretty well, and I made good time.\u00a0 The canyon walls closed in and opened up, alternating back and forth.\u00a0 There was one section which was really scenic with tighter canyon walls but still enough room for a bunch of cottonwoods to grow.\u00a0 The cottonwoods still had half-green leaves on them while the other half were just starting to change.\u00a0 Surprisingly, not everything is changing down here

since I went down some chutes that are pretty much irreversible.\u00a0 So it pretty much leaves you in a tough spot where you have to go forward.\u00a0 I wasn&#8217;t really concerned since it&#8217;s

downstream.\u00a0 I got to Tapeats, and the stream was raging very quickly and cascading downwards with often white water.\u00a0 However, it didn&#8217;t look impossibly deep as long as I crossed at

I got to their confluence and found a spot that was wide but only about knee-deep, and I was able to get across.\u00a0 I definitely let out a sigh of relief after I was done with that crossing.\u00a0 That also put me back on official Grand Canyon Trail!<\/span><\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\">Since I joined Thunder River at the confluence with Tapeats Creek, I followed it upstream, and I would follow it its entire length to its source.\u00a0 However, Thunder River is the shortest river in the world, and that didn&#8217;t take all too long.\u00a0 Thunder River has got to be about the most vertical river in the world too, especially considering its short length.\u00a0 It&#8217;s just a series of cascades and waterfalls that the trail went up as close to as it could.\u00a0 It&#8217;s an amazing river with how vertical and how much white water there is in it.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

camp when someone came walking down the trail on the other side of the river, calling out if anyone was around.\u00a0 He looked sort of like a ranger, and I debated not saying anything since that could only be trouble, but I decided he probably wasn\u2019t a ranger calling out like that, and I thought worst case maybe he needed some help.\u00a0 I spoke up, and he said that he was camped upstream with a group and they had food and beverages to share.\u00a0 Didn&#8217;t take much more of an invitation for me to gather up my stuff and head up there.<\/span><\/p><p class=\"MsoNormal\"><span style=\"font-family: 'Arial',sans-serif;\">I met Tom, Mike, Christy, and Jeanette, and true to his word, Tom set out an elaborate spread with meats, cheeses, nuts, jam, and assorted olives. \u00a0Fantastic, and he also passed around some brown wine!\u00a0 Quite a lively group, but it was nice to have some company.\u00a0 I saw one hiker in the distance today, and other than that, these were the first people I&#8217;d seen in 3 days.\u00a0 Quite a stretch for being in a busy national park.\u00a0 We hung out and chatted and had dinner before we each wandered off to our tents.\u00a0 A good day; I&#8217;m glad that my two-day downclimb of Saddle Canyon went well, and it turned out to be fun for the most part, though there were a couple of hairy
