How will the rig day and launch day unfold time- and event-wise?
Most groups chose to meet here in Flagstaff and be shuttled to Lee’s Ferry. Under this scenario you will meet at Canyon REO at 9 am the day prior to your launch day. You will pack dry bags, load personal gear and go through orientation. Between 11-12 noon we will load up and head out of town. We stop at Safeway for lunch before heading on to the parking storage lot. From there we will go on to Lee’s Ferry. The trip coaches will have arrived earlier and will have your boats blown up, ready to load. Your group will work with our trip coaches to load the boats. Around 5:30 or so you will float about 100 yards down to Boatman’s beach, set-up camp for the night and relax until dinner at Marble Canyon Lodge. The following morning the rangers will meet you around 9am to finish orientation and check id’s. When the rangers are done, you are on your way!
