The Grand Canyon of the Colorado, April 18-May 05, 2011
Greetings. Our endeavor to bring you the finest trips, continues.
We are excited about a new trip, one that we have a confirmed slot for, where the usual waiting period can vary from 2-18 years !
It is one of the most famous adventures on the planet.... And with good reason. Journeying for 14 days and 226 miles down the Colorado river is the smallest part of this trip. We get a chance to explore the Grand Canyon from within, with its scenic side hikes and spectacular waterfalls. You will camp on expansive sandy beaches retracing the expedition of Major John Wesley Powell in 1867 and visit ancient Indian ruins. There is frequently a two year waiting list for a commercial trip and up to 18 years for a private trip. The Grand Canyon is a relatively recent surface feature etched into the face of a far older world. The Colorado River drainage and the Grand Canyon have developed in the past 40 million years but the rock strata the river cuts though represent more than a third of the earth's 4.6 billion year history. We are so happy to have this departure date and very much hope you will be able to join us on a trip of a lifetime. Expect to have the canyon more to yourselves, and feel spring in the air, as you visit one of the most incredible corners on earth. Only 16 persons will be able to travel next Easter, on this exclusive. Email me if you feel the need to  escape into yet another realm of our beautiful planet. Look forward to hearing from you.
