What a bummer, Gary. I'm so sorry to hear this. Knowing you, you guys were well prepared for whatever came, but boy I would like to see your daughter's pictures from up top. So close. Maybe next time, Curtis and I will be able to join you guys on the trail.
As a side note, Curtis and I just got back from Havasupai where the normally gorgeous blue waterfalls were chocolate milk from all the recent floods. On our last night there, there was a soft-evacuation in effect from yet another flash flood warning. Mother nature demands attention, doesn't she?
