Grand Canyon & Other River Flows
In the Southwest US we have a lot of ephemeral streams with wild fluctuations. It’s all about how the river flows. High water, low water, fluctuating flows, steady flows, spike flows, flash floods, it's dropping out, it's coming up fast, a lot to consider. That’s the fun in it all!!!
